Abstract

Achieving mitral isthmus (MI) block can be challenging. This prospective study evaluated the feasibility and efficacy of a systematic strategy comprising three consecutive steps to achieve MI block. Twenty consecutive patients (mean (±SD) age: 71.4 ± 6.98 years) undergoing ablation of perimitral atrial tachycardia (PMAT) between December 2019 and November 2021 were included. MI was ablated using a systematic strategy comprising up to three consecutive steps: (1) endocardial ablation from the superolateral mitral annulus to the left pulmonary veins; (2) additional epicardial ablation in the coronary sinus (CS) on the opposite side of the endocardial line; (3) ablation of early activation sites between endocardial-epicardial breakthrough. MI block was successfully achieved in 19/20 patients (95%). MI block after endocardial radiofrequency ablation alone (step 1) was observed in 7/20 patients (35%). Epicardial ablation within the CS on the other side of the endocardial line (step 2) resulted in bidirectional MI block in three more patients. Endocardial ablation of epicardial conduction was successful for nine additional patients (95% success). At the 24-month follow-up, 12 patients (60%) displayed recurrence of arrhythmia after a single procedure. Only five patients (25%) had conduction across the MI and showed recurrence of PMAT. No complications occurred. The three-step ablation strategy resulted in a high rate of acute and durable MI block. PMAT recurrence after a single procedure was 10% at 1-year follow-up and 25% at 2-year follow-up. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Purpose: With the advent of percutaneous transcatheter device closures in congenital heart defects and the emergence of percutaneous left atrial appendage closure, there is an increasingly important role for echocardiographic guidance and control of device position and function. Disc occluder devices frequently present as an unexplained ‘figure-of-8’ on echocardiography. The aim of this study was to clarify this ‘figure-of-8’ display and to relate its morphology to transducer position and device type. Methods: A mathematical model was developed to resemble disc occluder geometry and to allow a numerical simulation of the echocardiographic appearance. In addition, we developed an in vitro set-up for echocardiographic analysis of various disc occluders and various transducer positions. Results: In the mathematical model of an epitrochoid curve (closely resembling disc occluder geometry) a ‘figure-of-8’ display is obtained when emphasizing points with tangent vector perpendicular to the direction of ultrasound waves. Decreasing imaging depth results in a more asymmetric ‘figure-of-8’, with small upper part and wide lower part. Clinical and in vitro data are in close agreement with these results (Figure 1). Furthermore a ‘figure-of-8’ display is only obtained in a coronal imaging position, and is similar for different commercially available disc occluder types. Conclusions: The ‘figure-of-8’ display in the ultrasound image of a disc occluder is an imaging artifact due to the specific ‘epitrochoidal’ geometry of a deployed device and its interaction with ultrasound waves. The morphology of the ‘figure-of-8’ depends on transducer position, i.e. imaging depth, and is similar for different device types. Figure 1 Impact of imaging depth

Abstract

Background: Achieving mitral isthmus (MI) block can be challenging. This prospective study evaluated the feasibility and efficacy of a systematic strategy comprising three consecutive steps to achieve MI block., Methods: Twenty consecutive patients (mean (± SD) age 71.4 ± 6.98 years) undergoing ablation of perimitral atrial tachycardia (PMAT) between December 2019 and November 2021 were included. MI was ablated using a systematic strategy comprising up to three consecutive steps: (1) endocardial ablation from the superolateral mitral annulus to the left pulmonary veins; (2) additional epicardial ablation in the coronary sinus (CS) on the opposite side of the endocardial line; and (3) ablation of early activation sites between endocardial and epicardial breakthroughs., Results: MI block was successfully achieved in 19/20 patients (95%). MI block after endocardial radiofrequency ablation alone (step 1) was observed in 7/20 patients (35%). Epicardial ablation within the CS on the other side of the endocardial line (step 2) resulted in bidirectional MI block in three more patients. Endocardial ablation of epicardial conduction was successful for nine additional patients (95% success). At the 12-month follow-up, five patients (25%) displayed recurrence of arrhythmia after a single procedure. One patient had electrical cardioversion for persistent atrial fibrillation. Four patients had a redo procedure for left atrial flutter and only two patients (10%) had conduction across the MI and showed recurrence of PMAT. No complications occurred., Conclusions: The three-step ablation strategy resulted in a high rate of acute and durable MI block. PMAT recurrence after a single procedure was 10% at 1-year follow-up., (© 2024. The Author(s).)

Abstract

Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a major public health matter. Mainly affecting the elderly, it is responsible for a high rate of hospitalization due to the frequency of acute heart failure (ADHF). This represents a disabling pathology for the patient and very costly for the health care system. Our study is designed to assess a connected and portable bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) that could reduce these hospitalizations by preventing early ADHF., Methods: This prospective study included patients hospitalized in cardiology for ADHF. Patients achieved 3 self-measurements using the BIA during their hospitalization and answered a questionnaire evaluating the acceptability of this self-measurement. The results of these measures were compared with the clinical, biological and echocardiographic criteria of patients at the same time., Results: Twenty-three patients were included, the self-measurement during the overall duration of the hospitalization was conducted autonomously by more than 80% of the patients. The acceptability (90%) for the use of the portable BIA was excellent. Some correlations were statistically significant, such as the total water difference to the weight difference (p=0.001). There were common trends between the variation of impedance analysis measures and other evaluation criteria., Conclusion: The feasibility and acceptability of a self-measurement of bioelectrical impedance analysis by the patient in AHF opens up major prospects in the management of monitoring patients in CHF. The interest of this tool is the prevention of ADHF leading to hospitalization or re-hospitalizations now requires to be presented by new studies.

Abstract

Background: Inappropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) shocks is a common complication in Brugada syndrome. However, the incidence in recipients of ICD for primary and secondary prevention is unknown., Method and Results: We compared the rate of inappropriate shocks in patients with Brugada syndrome that had an ICD for primary and secondary prevention. We studied 51 patients, 86.5% of whom were males. Their mean age at diagnosis was 47 ± 11 years. Eighteen (35%) were asymptomatic, while 25 (49%) experienced syncope prior to implantation. Eight (16%) patients were resuscitated from ventricular fibrillation before implantation. During a mean follow-up of 78 ± 46 months, none of the asymptomatic patients experienced appropriate therapy, whereas 21.6% of symptomatic patients had ≥1 shock. Inappropriate shock occurred in 7 (13.7%) patients, with a mean IS of 6.57 ± 6.94 shocks per patient occurring 16.14 ± 10.38 months after implantation. There was a trend towards higher incidence of inappropriate shock in the asymptomatic group (p = 0.09). The interval from implantation to inappropriate shock occurrence was 13.91 ± 12.98 months. The risk of IS at 3 years was 13.7%, which eventually plateaued over the time., Conclusion: Inappropriate shock is common in Brugada syndrome during the early periods after an ICD implantation, and seems to be more likely in asymptomatic patients. This finding may warrant a review of the indications for ICD implantation, especially in the young and apparently healthy population of patients with Brugada syndrome., (Copyright © 2016 Indian Heart Rhythm Society.

Abstract

Background: Transcatheter aortic-valve implantation (TAVI) is a new therapeutic choice for treating aortic stenosis in patients considered high risk for surgery. This blooming therapeutic technique still requires evaluation of medium and long term outcome., Method: We hereby report our results of the first 150 consecutive patients to receive TAVI implants in our population recruited from July 2009 to March 2013 in a retrospective and monocentric study. We analyzed long term morbidity and mortality criteria. We compared the apical and femoral approach results and researched predictors of cardiac mortality., Results: The mean monitoring period was 387.62 days, mean Euroscore was 21.8, and mean Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) risk score was 9.2. The success rate for the procedure was 94.6 %. A total of 39 patients died. The mortality rates at the immediate perioperative point, 30 days, 1 year, and 2 years, were 4 %, 11.3 %, 22.7 %, and 26 %, respectively. As regards complications, there were 10 hemodynamic complications (6.6 %) and 20 vascular (13.3 %), 11 cardiac tamponades (7.4 %), eight mechanical (5.3 %), ten major hemorrhagic (6.7 %), 14 pulmonary (9.3 %), and 18 infectious complications (12 %). When comparing the rates of reported complications in terms of different approaches, we observed significantly more hemodynamic complications in the apical group (p = 0.049). Pulmonary complications were also significantly more common in cases of apical approach (p = 0.029). The majority of the patients reported clear functional improvement throughout their follow-up., Conclusion: The results of the first 150 patients to receive the implant at the Nancy University Teaching Hospital (CHU Nancy) were consistent with findings in the literature. TAVI proved a credible and effective alternative to surgical valve replacement for patients at high risk during surgery.

Abstract

Background: Patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) present unusual myocardial mechanics. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of hypertrophy on global and regional two-dimensional (2D) strain derived from both tomographic images (2D/2D) and volumetric image acquisition (2D/three-dimensional [3D]) in patients with HCM compared with control subjects., Methods: Comprehensive resting 2D and 3D echocardiography was performed in 40 patients with HCM and in 53 control subjects, with comparable distributions of age, gender, and left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction. LV global and segmental measurements of all 2D/2D and 2D/3D peak strain components (global and segmental longitudinal strain, global and segmental circumferential strain, global and segmental radial strain, and global and segmental area strain) and 3D indexed LV end-diastolic myocardial mass were obtained from all patients. LV wall thickness was assessed in short-axis views and classified in four quartiles (<10.5, 10.5-13.0, 13.0-16.5, and >16.5 mm)., Results: The reproducibility of 2D/3D strain was similar or greater and more consistent for all components compared with 2D/2D strain analysis. There was a significant correlation between 3D LV end-diastolic mass and all 2D/3D strain components (P < .05). Two-dimensional/3D global circumferential strain had the strongest association with 3D LV ejection fraction (r = 0.50, P = .001). For segmental deformation, patients with HCM had lower longitudinal deformation whatever the LV wall thickness, whereas circumferential function was increased in nonhypertrophied and poorly hypertrophied segments compared with control subjects., Conclusions: Two-dimensional/3D strain is a reliable technique to assess myocardial deformation. Myocardial mass is related to 2D/3D strain components in patients with HCM. Circumferential deformation, compared with longitudinal deformation, seems to be the main component of the maintenance of systolic function in HCM., (Copyright © 2015 American Society of Echocardiography.

Abstract

Aims: To examine in a population of post-operative tetralogy of Fallot patients, the correlation between right ventricle (RV) ejection fractions (EF) computed from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and three echocardiographic indices of RV function: TAPSE, longitudinal strain and strain rate. Indeed, these patients present a pulmonary regurgitation which is responsible for progressive dilatation of the RV. An echocardiographic assessment of the RV function would be very useful in determining the timing of pulmonary revalvulation for Fallot patients. However, these indices are generally based on the ventricle contraction in the long axis direction which is impaired in this population and does not seem to correlate with the EF., Methods and Results: Thirty-five post-operative tetralogy of Fallot patients and 20 patients with normal RVs were included. In both groups, RVEF, assessed by MRI, was compared with the three echocardiographic indices. Longitudinal strain and strain rates were computed both on the free wall and on the whole RV. No correlation was found between the echocardiographic indices and the MRI EF in our Fallot population. The accuracy of those indices as a diagnostic test of an altered RV was low with Younden's indices varying from -0.18 to 0.5 and areas under the Receiver Operating Characterictic (ROC) curves equal to 0.54 for tricuspid annulus plane systolic excursion, 0.59-0.62 for strain and 0.57-0.63 for strain rate., Conclusion: Three conventional echocardiographic indices based on RV longitudinal contraction failed to assess the EF in our population of post-operative tetralogy of Fallot patients.
