    Notizen: Bradycardia support by ICDs has been limited to fixed rate, ventricular pacing. Concomitant placement of a pacemaker and an ICD exposes a patient to potentially life-threatening device interactions. ICDs capable of dual chamber pacing have recently become available. The number of ICD recipients who stand to benefit from the addition of dual chamber pacing is debated, but no data have addressed this question. This retrospective study analyzed all patients who received nonthoractomy ICD system placement at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN between March 1991 and October 1996 in order to determine the proportion of patients in whom a dual chamber pacing ICD may be indicated. Definitions: (1) Definitely indicated = pacemaker present at ICD implant or NASPE Class I pacing indication; (2) Probably indicated = NASPE Class II pacing indication, NYHA Functional Class III or IV, or history of systolic congestive heart failure; (3) Possibly indicated = history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation or an ejection fraction ≤ 20%. The results were that nonthoracotomy ICDs were placed in 253 patients. A dual chamber ICD would have been definitely indicated in 11% of the study group, probably indicated in 28%, and possibly indicated in 14%. Chronic atrial fibrillation was present at ICD implant in 6.7% of patients and developed in 0.9%/yr during follow-up. The addition of dual chamber pacing to ICDs stands to potentially benefit approximately half (53%) of ICD recipients. These data do not address all patients who may benefit from dual chamber sensing.

    Notizen: Patients with one of several varieties of malformation designated as “univentricular hearts” may be especially challenging when permanent pacing is required. Our objective was to review our experience in this subset of patients that had undergone permanent pacing and thus determine the optimal approach. A retrospective chart review was done of 32 patients with some variety of “univentricular” malformation who had required permanent pacing at our institution. Although technically challenging, permanent pacing in this group of patients can be successful through several approaches. The various approaches, as well as consideration of the differences that exist between patients undergoing septation and those undergoing a Fontan procedure are discussed. Although long-term permanent pacing is possible in this group of patients, before pacing begins, a thorough understanding of the anatomy and prior surgical procedures is necessary. Use of a combined atrial transvenous and ventricular epicardial pacing system may work well for some patients. With the development of newer and more reliable coronary sinus leads, dual chamber transvenous pacing with ventricular stimulation via the coronary sinus could become the approach of choice in some patients with “univentricular hearts.”

    Notizen: Since 1990, 558 Medtronic 5524 bipolar, silicone-insulated, J-shaped, tined, steroid-eluting atrial leads have been implanted at the Mayo Clinic (Rochester, MN, USA) and the Midelfort Clinic (Eau Claire, WI, USA). Implantation data were favorable, with pacing thresholds at implantation (median threshold, 0.6 V) better than most published data on other atrial leads. The rate of acute lead-related complications (dislodgment and diaphragmatic pacing) necessitating reoperation or electrical abandonment of the atrial lead was 0.9%. This rate is lower than that in most published series of atrial leads. Over a median follow-up time of 17.5 months (up to 69 months), there were no chronic lead-related complications and no definite or suspected failures of lead material. This rate is much lower than that with other atrial leads studied previously. We conclude that the Medtronic 5524 atrial lead combines the reliability of silicone insulation with a lack of chronic complications and high thresholds due to its steroid elution and with stability in the atrium due to its J shape despite a passive fixation mechanism. There is no evidence of lead material failure during up to 6 years of follow-up.

    Notizen: Since 1990, 1,068 Medtronic 5024 bipolar, silicone-insulated, tined, steroid-eluting ventricular leads have been implanted at the Mayo Clinic (Rochester, MN) and Midelfort Clinic (Eau Claire, WI). Implantation data were favorable: median pacing thresholds of 0.5 V at 0.5 ms, median R wave of 13.4 mV, and median impedance of 593 Ω. Of the 2.1% acute lead-related complications (dislodgment, microdislocation, diaphragmatic pacing, and undersensing), 1.2% necessitated reoperation. This rate is lower than that in most published series of other leads. During a median follow-up of 23 months (up to 76 months), 12 (1.1 %) chronic lead-related complications (high thresholds, loss of capture, and undersensing) and no instances of definite or suspected lead material failure occurred. This rate is much lower than that in studies of other leads. Thus, the 5024 lead combines the reliability of silicone insulation with a low rate of chronic complications that is probably the result of its steroid elution. No evidence of failure of lead material has appeared up to 6 years after implantation.
