This study examined the predictors of early complications after defibrillator implantation.
Although implantable cardioverter-defibrillators are widely used, predictors of procedural complications and the consequences of these events have not been determined.
In a prospective, multicenter, population-based clinical outcomes registry of all newly implanted defibrillator patients at 18 centers in Ontario, Canada, we examined 45-day complications and all-cause mortality from February 2007 to May 2009. Complications were determined longitudinally and were categorized as direct implant-related or indirect events.
Among 3,340 patients (mean age 63.8 +/- 12.5 years, 78.5% men), major complications occurred in 4.1% of de novo procedures. Compared with those undergoing a single-chamber device, implantation of a cardiac resynchronization defibrillator (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 2.17, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.38 to 3.43, p < 0.001) or dual-chamber device (adjusted HR: 1.82, 95% CI: 1.19 to 2.79, p = 0.006) was associated with increased risk of major complications. Major complications were increased in women (adjusted HR: 1.49, 95% CI: 1.02 to 2.16, p = 0.037) and when left ventricular end-systolic dimension exceeded 45 mm (adjusted HR: 1.54, 95% CI: 1.08 to 2.20, p = 0.018). Major complications (excluding death) occurring early after defibrillator implantation were associated with increased adjusted risk of subsequent death up to 180 days after defibrillator implant (adjusted HR: 3.70, 95% CI: 1.64 to 8.33, p = 0.002). Direct implant-related complications were associated with increased risk of early death (adjusted HR: 24.89, p = 0.01), whereas indirect clinical complications conferred increased risk of near-term death (adjusted HR: 12.35, p < 0.001) after defibrillator implantation.
Complications after de novo defibrillator implantation were strongly associated with device type. Major complications were associated with increased risk of mortality.
本研究旨在探讨除颤器植入术后早期并发症的预测因素。
尽管植入式心脏复律除颤器(ICD)的应用已较为广泛,但目前仍未明确预测程序并发症的因素以及这些事件的后果。
在加拿大安大略省 18 个中心的一项前瞻性、多中心、基于人群的所有新植入 ICD 患者临床结局注册研究中,我们在 2007 年 2 月至 2009 年 5 月期间对 45 天内的并发症和全因死亡率进行了检测。并发症是通过纵向检测确定的,并分为直接与植入相关的并发症和间接并发症。
在 3340 例患者(平均年龄 63.8±12.5 岁,78.5%为男性)中,4.1%的患者在初次手术中出现了主要并发症。与植入单腔装置的患者相比,植入心脏再同步除颤器(校正后的危险比 [HR]:2.17,95%置信区间 [CI]:1.38 至 3.43,p<0.001)或双腔装置(校正后的 HR:1.82,95%CI:1.19 至 2.79,p=0.006)与主要并发症风险增加相关。女性(校正后的 HR:1.49,95%CI:1.02 至 2.16,p=0.037)和左心室收缩末期直径>45mm(校正后的 HR:1.54,95%CI:1.08 至 2.20,p=0.018)的患者主要并发症风险增加。除颤器植入后早期发生的主要并发症(不包括死亡)与植入除颤器后 180 天内死亡的校正后风险增加相关(校正后的 HR:3.70,95%CI:1.64 至 8.33,p=0.002)。与直接与植入相关的并发症相比,间接临床并发症与早期死亡风险增加相关(校正后的 HR:24.89,p=0.01),而与近期死亡风险增加相关(校正后的 HR:12.35,p<0.001)。
初次植入除颤器后的并发症与装置类型密切相关。主要并发症与死亡率增加相关。
