Subcutaneous Implantable Defibrillators in Young Patients: Arrhythmias, Complications, and Physical Activity

Pietro Francia, Matteo Ziacchi, Federico Migliore, Paolo De Filippo et autres

BACKGROUND: The safety of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD) recipients who lead active lifestyles and engage in recreational sports is unknown. We aimed to evaluate the association between lifestyle and recreational sports and the occurrence of arrhythmia- and device-related complications, appropriate and …

Patient acceptance of subcutaneous versus transvenous defibrillator systems: A multi‐center experience

Alessandro Vicentini, Giovanni Bisignani, Stefano De Vivo, Stefano Viani et autres

BACKGROUND: The subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) is an effective alternative to the transvenous ICD. No study has yet compared S-ICD and transvenous ICD by assessing patient acceptance as a patient-centered outcome. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the patient acceptance of the S-ICD and to …

Implantation technique and optimal subcutaneous defibrillator chest position: a PRAETORIAN score-based study

Pietro Francia, Mauro Biffi, Carmen Adduci, Luca Ottaviano et autres

AIMS: The traditional technique for subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) implantation involves three incisions and a subcutaneous pocket. Recently, a two-incision and intermuscular (IM) technique has been adopted. The PRAETORIAN score is a chest radiograph-based tool that predicts S-ICD conversion testing. We assessed …

Optimization of coronary sinus lead placement targeted to right-to-left delay in patients undergoing cardiac resynchronization therapy

Daniele Oddone, Diana Solari, Giuseppe Arena, Roberto Mureddu et autres

AIMS: Anatomical placement of the coronary sinus (CS) lead in basal or mid-ventricular positions of the posterior and lateral walls is associated with a better clinical outcome of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). We hypothesized that optimization of CS lead placement targeted the …

Impact of pacemaker longevity on expected device replacement rates: Results from computer simulations based on a multicenter registry (ESSENTIAL)

Giuseppe Boriani, Matteo Bertini, Davide Saporito, Giuseppina Belotti et autres

BACKGROUND: The rate of device replacement in pacemaker recipients has not been investigated in detail. HYPOTHESIS: Current pacemakers with automatic management of atrial and ventricular pacing output provide sufficient longevity to minimize replacement rate. METHODS: We considered a cohort of 542 pacemaker …

Optimization of coronary sinus lead placement targeted to the longest right‐to‐left delay in patients undergoing cardiac resynchronization therapy: The Optimal Pacing SITE 2 (OPSITE 2) acute study and protocol

Daniele Oddone, Diana Solari, René Nangah, Giuseppe Arena et autres

AIMS: Left ventricular (LV) lead positioning at the site of delayed electrical activation is associated with better response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). We hypothesized that a long electrical conduction delay between right ventricular (RV) and coronary sinus (CS) leads during RV …

Access to magnetic resonance imaging of patients with magnetic resonance-conditional pacemaker and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator systems: results from the Really ProMRI study

Eduardo Celentano, Vincenzo Caccavo, Matteo Santamaria, Claudia Baiocchi et autres

Aims: The Really ProMRI study evaluates magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) access for patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) as well as the performance of magnetic resonance (MR)-conditional leads when undergoing MRI. Methods and results: Patients either with an MR-conditional pacemaker or …

Automatic management of atrial and ventricular stimulation in a contemporary unselected population of pacemaker recipients: the ESSENTIAL Registry

Mauro Biffi, Matteo Bertini, Davide Saporito, Giuseppina Belotti et autres

AIMS: We investigated the applicability of the Ventricular Capture Control (VCC) and Atrial Capture Control (ACC) algorithms for automatic management of cardiac stimulation featured by Biotronik pacemakers in a broad, unselected population of pacemaker recipients. METHODS AND RESULTS: Ventricular Capture Control and …
