In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), there is a well-known association between nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) and the risk of sudden death.
To assess the incidence of NSVT using 24-hour Holter monitoring in patients with HCM in a Brazilian cohort and correlate it with its characteristics and progression.
This retrospective study of patients with HCM used 24-hour Holter monitoring to assess the presence of long-lasting, fast NSVT (≥ 10 beats and heart rate ≥ 130 bpm) or the presence of at least 3 episodes of NSVT with ≥ 3 beats and heart rate ≥ 120 bpm. Continuous variables were shown as arithmetic means and standard deviations, and categorical variables were shown as absolute and relative frequencies. P < 0.05 was considered significant.
We included 763 patients, 53.5% of whom were male. Their mean age was 52.6 years ± 16.7. NSVT was found in 10% (76 patients). Only 11 (1.4%) of them had NSVT with ≥ 10 beats and heart rate ≥ 130 bpm. There was no difference in the relationship between NSVT and sex, septum > 30 mm, age ≥ 40 years, betablocker dose, and presence of atrial fibrillation. In the group with NSVT, 15-year all-cause mortality was observed in 26.3%, compared to 15.9% in the group without NSVT (p = 0.021).
The presence of NSVT on 24-hour Holter monitoring occurred in 10% of patients. Long-lasting, fast NSVT was rare. The presence of NSVT was associated with higher overall mortality during follow-up.
在肥厚型心肌病(HCM)中,非持续性室性心动过速(NSVT)与猝死风险之间存在众所周知的关联。
在巴西队列中,使用24小时动态心电图监测评估HCM患者中NSVT的发生率,并将其与特征及病情进展相关联。
这项针对HCM患者的回顾性研究采用24小时动态心电图监测,以评估持续性快速NSVT(≥10次心跳且心率≥130次/分钟)的存在情况,或至少3次发作的NSVT(≥3次心跳且心率≥120次/分钟)的存在情况。连续变量以算术平均值和标准差表示,分类变量以绝对和相对频率表示。P<0.05被认为具有统计学意义。
我们纳入了763例患者,其中53.5%为男性。他们的平均年龄为52.6岁±16.7岁。发现10%(76例)患者存在NSVT。其中只有11例(1.4%)患者的NSVT为≥10次心跳且心率≥130次/分钟。NSVT与性别、室间隔>30mm、年龄≥40岁、β受体阻滞剂剂量以及房颤的存在之间的关系无差异。在有NSVT的组中,观察到15年全因死亡率为26.3%,而无NSVT的组为15.9%(p=0.021)。
24小时动态心电图监测显示10%的患者存在NSVT。持续性快速NSVT很少见。NSVT的存在与随访期间较高的总体死亡率相关。
