Incidence of atrial high rate episodes after dual-chamber permanent pacemaker implantation and its clinical predictors
Atrial high rate episodes (AHRE) confers increased morbidity and mortality amongst patients with permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI). The incidence of AHREs and it's clinical predictors in Indian patients without prior history of atrial fibrillation (AF) are not well understood. A total of 1...

Sumario: | Atrial high rate episodes (AHRE) confers increased morbidity and mortality amongst patients with permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI). The incidence of AHREs and it's clinical predictors in Indian patients without prior history of atrial fibrillation (AF) are not well understood. A total of 100 dual-chamber PPI patients, who had no prior history of AF, underwent pacemaker interrogation starting from a minimum of 1 month after implantation to detect any AHREs. The incidence of AHREs was 17% at a mean follow up 15.2 [Formula: see text] 7.5 months. Only right ventricular apical lead position was found to have an independent association with AHREs (OR: 3.50, 95% CI: 1.02–12.03; p = 0.04). |
