View Abstract

Abstract: Background: Single chamber atrial pacemaker should be sufficient for patients with sinus node dysfunction (SND) with normal atrioventricular (AV) conduction. However, most patients undergo dual chamber pacemaker implantation because of concern of new onset AV block. The annual incidence of new AV block has been reported from 0.6 to 4.4 % in various studies. Objectives: Our aim is to assess mode survival in sinus node dysfunction with normal AV conduction patients implanted with AAIR. Methods: Patients who underwent single chamber atrial pacemaker implantation for SND with normal AV conduction between January 2014 and December 2021 were followed up for pacemaker device change, new onset AV block, bundle branch block, atrial fibrillation (AF), lead complications, reoperation and mortality rate. Results: A total of 113 patients underwent single chamber atrial pacemaker implantation for SND during the study period. Mean age was 55.6 ± 12.7 years. During a mean follow up of 48.7 ± 24.9 months, none of the patients required pacemaker device change to VVIR/DDDR. Nine patients underwent reoperation, 5 for lead dislodgment, 1 for high threshold, 1 for pocket site erosion and 3 for pulse generator change. None developed AV block or AF with slow ventricular rate. Only 4 patients developed AF (3 paroxysmal,1 permanent). There were 3 deaths during follow up and none were sudden deaths. Conclusion: Single chamber atrial pacing is an acceptable mode of pacing in patients with SND in developing countries. Development of AV conduction abnormalities is rare in this relatively younger population. Keywords: AAI; AV block; Atrial fibrillation; DDD; Sinus node dysfunction.

Abstract: Post ablation of the accessory pathway (AP), the patient is observed in the catheterization laboratory for a variable period for resumption of pathway conduction. Aim of the study was to determine whether the administration of intravenous adenosine at 10 min after ablation of AP would have the same diagnostic accuracy as waiting for 30 min in predicting the resumption of AP conduction.

Abstract: A total of 42 patients were studied for primary outcomes of quality of life and 6MWD between VVIR and DDD modes. At end of 2 months after device implantation, randomization was done and the device was programmed to VVIR or DDD modes. At the end of 2 months in this mode QOL and functional was assessed and the patient was switched to other mode. The same protocol was followed at the end of 2 months. We found no difference in functional capacity and quality of life between the two pacing modes. None of the patients developed pacemaker syndrome and there was no preference for any of the modes.

Editorial  Cited 6 times   DOI   Pubmed  

View Abstract

Abstract: Atrial fibrillation becomes a potentially lethal arrhythmia in the presence of preexcitation because the rapid ventricular activation can result in ventricular fibrillation. Fortunately, radiofrequency ablation is an effective treatment for these patients. Specific points of interest regarding this association are the mechanism of increased incidence of atrial fibrillation and the current management of patients presenting in atrial fibrillation. These are discussed in this editorial.

View Abstract

Abstract: Identification of coronary ischemia in patients presenting with chronic chest pain is difficult as resting ECG can be normal. Diagnosis of coronary ischemia requires evaluation during exercise or pharmacological stress. A noninvasive test to identify coronary ischemia at rest without the need for exercise is desirable. We studied the diagnostic accuracy of magnetocardiography (MCG) at rest to detect coronary ischemia in these patients.

View Abstract

Abstract: Atrial arrhythmias rising from the regions of the atria that are in close proximity to each other may pose a challenge in identifying the chamber to map and ablate in. In this report, we discuss a patient with left atrial tachycardia which initially mimicked right atrial tachycardia. We discuss the origins of the abnormal electrograms in the right atrium and how this provides a general understanding of the mechanism of double potentials.

Reuse of pacemakers, defibrillators and cardiac resynchronisation devices. Raja J Selvaraj and R Sakthivel and Santhosh Satheesh and Ajith Ananthakrishna Pillai and Pascal Sagnol and Xavier Jouven and Bernard Dodinot and Jayaraman Balachander. Heart Asia 2017; 9: 30.1--33

Abstract: Access to pacemakers remains poor among many patients in low/middle-income countries. Reuse of explanted pacemakers is a possible solution, but is still not widespread because of concerns regarding outcomes, especially infection. Our objective was to study early outcomes with implants using reused devices and compare them with those with implants using new devices.

View Abstract

Abstract: A narrow QRS tachycardia with eccentric atrial activation is presented with features favoring an orthodromic atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardia including an extranodal paraHisian response, and a short corrected post-pacing interval to tachycardia cycle length difference following right ventricular entrainment. However, during entrainment, the H-H interval was entrained by the pacing train several beats prior to the A-A interval which would suggest an atrioventricular nodal re-entry tachycardia. We discuss the diagnosis and its mechanism.

View Abstract

Abstract: Two cases of "locked-in" sensitivity in the managed ventricular pacing mode are reported. Patient A was a 22-year-old man with a history of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy and a prophylactic dual-chamber automatic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator who manifested paradoxic T-wave oversensing on the ventricular lead at a sensitivity setting of 1.2 mV but not earlier when the sensitivity had been set to 0.9 mV. Patient B was a 74-year-old patient with ischemic cardiomyopathy and a dual-chamber defibrillator who presented with persistent paradoxic undersensing of the P wave on the atrial lead even at the maximal sensitivity of 0.15 mV, although P-wave sensing was normal earlier when sensitivity was set to 0.3 mV. The phenomenon and the mechanism for its behavior are described.

Abstract: The modified moving average (MMA) and spectral method (SM) are commonly used to measure T-wave alternans (TWA), but their accuracy has not been compared in ambulatory electrocardiograms (ECGs) where TWA signal-to-noise ratio is low. Our objective was to compare the effect of noise and signal nonstationarity on the accuracy of TWA measurement using MMA versus SM when applied to synthetic and ambulatory ECGs.

Abstract: Background— Action potential duration (APD) variation is an important determinant of wave break and reentry. The determinants of APD variability during early ventricular fibrillation (VF) in myopathic human hearts have not been studied. The objective of this study was to study the role of APD restitution and short-term cardiac memory on variation in human VF. Methods and Results— The study consisted of 7 patients (67�9 years old) with ejection fraction <35%. Monophasic action potentials were recorded from the right and/or left ventricular septum during VF. APD 60/90 was measured in sinus beat preceding induction of VF, and its amplitude was used to define 60%/90% repolarization in VF. The monophasic action potential upstroke (dV/dt max ) was used to characterize local excitability. Simple linear regression showed that variability in APD n60 was determined by APD/diastolic interval restitution ( R 2 =0.48, P <0.0001) and short-term memory (APD 60 n−1, n−2, n−3, n−4; R 2 =0.55, 0.40, 0.33, and 0.27 respectively; P <0.001). Using multiple stepwise regression, short-term memory and restitution accounted for 62% of variance in APD 60 ( P <0.001). Individually, memory effect had the greatest contribution to APD variability ( R 2 =0.55, P <0.0001). Conclusions— In early human VF, short-term memory and APD/diastolic interval restitution explain most of the APD variability, with memory effects predominating. This suggests that in early human VF, short-term cardiac memory may provide a novel therapeutic target to modulate progression of VF in myopathic patients.

View Abstract

Abstract: Sudden cardiac death remains a major cause of mortality among patients with cardiomyopathy and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy has been shown to improve survival in these patients. Effective use of prophylactic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy requires accurate risk stratification beyond assessment of ejection fraction, however. Repolarization alternans is a harbinger of ventricular arrhythmias and its measurement from body-surface recordings, also known as microvolt T-wave alternans, is emerging as an effective prognostic tool in these patients based on recent clinical trials.
