The Impact

The history of pacing for bradycardia started more than 50 years ago and in these five decades the technologically driven evolution of devices and tools has been complemented by the acquisition of important scientific evidence of benefit in specific patient settings. The current prevalence of bradyarrhythmias requiring permanent cardiac pacing therapy is not precisely known, but the progressive ageing of the population makes it necessary to improve knowledge of the impact of bradycardia on patients’ health, as well as to improve the implementation in daily practice of the most appropriate and evidence-based device treatments, with an adequate reorganization of care. Moreover, the impressive technological evolution that occurred in this field, as a result of extensive cooperation between physicians, scientists, engineers, manufacturers, regulatory agencies, and healthcare providers, led to the appearance of new requirements such as improved clinical skills, the need for continuous education on rapidly evolving technology, the assessment of treatment costs, the need for consensus guidelines, and the need for reorganization of care delivery including telemedicine for device follow-up.

Abstract Background New generation pacemaker allow the assessment day by day of sleep disordered breathing (SDB) based on impedance measurement. A recent study demonstrated that incidence of AF is higher in case of severe SA monitored by pacemaker Purpose The aim was to compare the atrial fibrillation (AF) burden between patients with severe and non-severe sleep apnea (SA) detected with pacemakers monitoring (SDB). Methods This retrospective study was carried out at our University Hospital. We included all patients with Microport CRM pacemaker implanted from 2013 to 2016 at our university hospital. Exclusion criteria were inactivation of sleep apnea monitoring (SAM), history of sleep apnea, missing data or invalid data. AF burden was assessed according to Fallback mode switch (FMS) duration. Respiratory disturbance index (RDI) was calculated as the average number of events (ventilation pause and reductions) per number of hours of monitoring. Patients with RDI<20/h were compared with patients with RDI≥20/h (considered as severe SA group). Results 404 patients (mean age = 79.7±10 years; 52.0% men) were included. The most prevalent indication for cardiac pacing was atrioventricular block in 57%. Mean RDI was 18.9 events per hour. 234 (58%) of them had a mean RDI <20 and 170 (42%) had a mean RDI ≥20. Compared to patients with mean RDI<20, those with mean RDI ≥20 were youngers (78.6±10 years Vs 81.8±8 years; p=0.02), were more likely to be male (58.2% Vs 47.5%: p=0.035) and had more heart failure history (28.8% Vs 19.2%: p=0.03). BMI was not different between groups (26.3±5. vs 26.3±4; P=0.33). Mean follow-up was 27 months. Patients with RDI ≥20 had a mean Atrial fibrillation duration longer than patients with RDI <20 (631 min Vs 291 min respectively; p=0.014). RDI was correlated with FMS (r=0.26; p=0.0004). The stroke rate tended to be higher in the RDI ≥20 group (2.1% vs 5.4%) (p=0.12). Conclusion Severe SA detected by pacemaker was associated with longer AF duration. We did not find higher occurrence of stroke in the severe SA group. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Sinoatrial Node Dysfunction

Syndrome of hemodynamic depression is a frequent complication of the carotid artery endovascular intervention and, as a rule, is transient in nature. This article presents a clinical case of carotid artery stenting in a 63-year-old patient. The specific feature of this patient was the initial sinoatrial node dysfunction as a permanent sinus bradycardia. The examination verified multisite atherosclerosis, including coronary artery stenosis, manifested by the presence of stable angina, without history of myocardial infarction. Therefore, coronary endovascular treatment was firstly performed. Reexamination after coronary blood flow restoration revealed stable sinus bradycardia persistence without any positive or negative changes. According to anamnesis, examination and instrumental diagnostic results, indications for permanent cardiac pacing were not identified. Carotid artery stenting after the necessary preventive measures was successful. The article also considers possible risk factors of significant perioperative bradycardia during carotid angioplasty with stenting and measures preventing cardiac conduction perioperative worsening.

With the advent of cardiac pacemakers more than 60 years ago, the era of artificial cardiac pacing began, which changed the natural history of symptomatic bradycardias, significantly increasing the survival especially of patients with complete atrioventricular block.
