Inappropriate Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator Shocks
Results A total of 1,544 ICD patients (79% male, age 61 13 years) were included in the analysis. During the follow-up period of 41 18 months, 13% experienced 1 inappropriate shocks. The cumulative incidence steadily increased to 18% at 5-year follow-up. Independent predictors of the occurrence of inappropriate shocks included a history of atrial fibrillation (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.0, p 0.01) and...
متن کاملTactics for the reduction of inappropriate implantable cardioverter defibrillator shocks.
he implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) reduces mortality when used for primary or secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death in patients at high risk for life-threatening arrhythmias. In the era of singlechamber ICD, atrial fibrillation (AF) was the most common cause of inappropriate shocks, responsible for up to 62% of these.1 The issue still constitutes a major challenge, even afte...
متن کاملAutomatic implantable cardioverter/defibrillator discharges and acute myocardial injury.
Multiple defibrillations by the automatic implantable cardioverter/defibrillator (AICD) have been reported to result in localized epicardial damage. No data exist, however, regarding whether this damage can be detected in the clinical setting or whether it interferes with the detection of true myocardial infarction. Forty-nine patients who received defibrillations by patch electrodes were studi...
متن کاملPredictors of appropriate and inappropriate Therapies in Patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillator and Structural Heart Disease
Part 1)* Identifying predictors of electrical storm in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) could help to identify those at risk and reduce the incidence of this emergency situation which has detrimental effect on mortality and morbidity in patients with ICD. In this retrospective study we sought to find the prevalence and predictors of electrical storm in patients with IC...
متن کاملPredictors and Clinical Impact of Inappropriate Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator Shocks in Korean Patients
Limited data are available on inappropriate shocks in Korean patients implanted with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). We investigated the impact of inappropriate shocks on clinical outcomes. This retrospective, single-center study included 148 patients treated between October 1999 and June 2011. The primary outcome was a composite event of all-cause mortality or hospitalization ...
