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 کاملEffects of antiarrhythmic drugs on inappropriate shocks in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillators.
BACKGROUND Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) or congestive heart failure (CHF) are more vulnerable to inappropriate shocks from implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), but the effect of antiarrhythmic drugs in these patients remains unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 55 patients with AF and/or CHF (New York Heart Association functional class > or =III) who had ICDs were divi...
متن کاملInappropriate shocks in single-chamber and subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Aims Single-chamber (VR-ICD) and subcutaneous (S-ICD) implantable cardioverter-defibrillators are effective to protect patients against sudden death but expose them to higher risk of inappropriate shock (IS). We sought to quantify the annual rate and influencing factors of ISs in VR- and S-ICDs from the literature. Methods and results PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library were searched for ful...
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 کاملShocks as predictors of survival in patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators.
OBJECTIVES The objective of the study was to determine whether the occurrence of shocks for ventricular tachyarrhythmias during therapy with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICD) is predictive of shortened survival. BACKGROUND Ventricular tachyarrhythmias eliciting shocks are often associated with depressed ventricular function, making assessment of shocks as an independent risk facto...
