Abstract
Over the past 30 years, treatment paradigms for atrial fibrillation (AF) patients have changed dramatically. Before 1989, and the publication of the CAST trial results, the primary objective was to maintain or restore sinus rhythm. In the following 20 years, the management of AF patients has focused on the prevention of thrombo-embolic events (with the confrontation of aspirin and oral anticoagulants), and on the debate between rhythm control and rate control. In 2010, the objectives are to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life, to prevent thrombo-embolic complications, and, if possible, to reduce mortality. New anticoagulants will soon be available. Ablative techniques are becoming current practice in selected patients, and the new antiarrhythmic agent dronedarone has shown remarkable clinical results in the ATHENA trial. Overall, ablative techniques can be used in younger patients with paroxysmal or persistent AF refractory to medical treatment a rate control strategy is appropriate in permanent AF, or as second line treatment in patients with other forms of AF.

Abstract
Aims Automatic daily transmission of data from implantable cardioverter–defibrillators (ICDs) enables the remote monitoring of device status and leads function. We report on a 2-year experience with remote monitoring in 40 recipients of high-voltage ICD leads, prone to fracture and under advisory since October 2007. Methods and results The ICDs were remotely monitored as well as systematically interrogated in the ambulatory department every 3 months. The patients were also seen in case of abnormal lead impedance, or other manifestations consistent with lead dysfunction. Over a mean follow-up of 22 ± 4 months after ICD implantation, four lead dysfunctions were suspected because of remotely transmitted oversensing of noise artifacts, abrupt rise in pacing impedance, or both. A lead fracture needing lead replacement was confirmed in three patients (7.5%), two of them before any inappropriate therapy and one after the delivery of three inappropriate shocks. No lead failure was observed in the remaining 36 patients, either at the time of ambulatory visits or during remote monitoring. Conclusion Remote monitoring allowed the early and reliable detection of ICD leads failure without requiring any patient intervention.

Abstract
AIMS Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) consider the related symptoms disruptive to their quality of life (QoL). This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the control of symptomatic paroxysmal AF (PAF) on QoL. METHODS AND RESULTS Patients with symptomatic PAF were treated for 48 weeks with open-label flecainide acetate controlled release (Flec CR). Quality of life was assessed by SF-36 and Atrial Fibrillation Severity Scale scores at baseline, Week 12 (W12), W24, and W48. Of the 229 treated patients, 217 were analysed for QoL (123 with controlled and 94 with uncontrolled symptomatic PAF at inclusion). The controlled group had a similar or better QoL (SF-36) at baseline compared with a reference population (significantly better for: physical functioning, bodily pain, and physical component). The uncontrolled group had an inferior QoL (significantly worse for: role physical, general health, vitality, role emotional, social functioning, mental health, and mental component). When treated with Flec CR, the controlled group baseline QoL scores were maintained and the uncontrolled group scores were improved to a level comparable to the controlled group scores. Safety findings reflect the known clinical safety profile of flecainide acetate. CONCLUSION In this study, patients with uncontrolled symptomatic PAF at baseline had an inferior QoL to those with controlled symptomatic PAF. Following treatment with controlled-release flecainide acetate, their QoL improved to a level comparable to controlled patients.

Abstract
Antithrombotic treatment is a crucial challenge in the management of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). It is the only treatment which can decrease mortality in relation with AF. It can also prevent the first cause of dependency in elderly: stroke. Vitamin K antagonists are the more potent drugs to reduce the risk of ischemic stroke in patient with AF. Aspirin, unfractioned heparine or low molecular weight heparin and thienopyridine can also play a role in the antithrombotic therapy in special situations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe the management of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and to study consistency with guidelines on management of AF. PATIENTS AND METHODS Observational study on a random sample of cardiologists from a French national database. Each cardiologist had to recruit the first five patients meeting inclusion criteria (patients diagnosed with AF between January 2004 and one month before inclusion and accepting the collection of their medical data). RESULTS Between December 2006 and January 2207, 1789 patients aged 71 on average have been recruited by 481 cardiologists. Fifty-one percent were diagnosed with paroxysmal, 15% with persistent and 33% with permanent AF. Restoration of sinus rhythm was preferred in forms considered as paroxysmal or persistent forms whereas control of the ventricular rate was more frequent in AF considered as permanent. Overall, therapeutic guidelines are applied in practice, despite a frequent use of amiodarone in patients with no associated heart disease. Prevention of thromboembolism was observed in 88% of the patients. CONCLUSIONS FACTUEL is the biggest observational study on AF ever conducted in France. The therapeutic strategies used by the cardiologists are consistent with the objectives of preventing thromboembolism and controlling heart rhythm and/or rate. In most cases, the treatment used is consistent with the therapeutic guidelines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite thorough investigation, approximately 15-20% of syncope cases remain unexplained. An underrecognized cause of syncope may occur when partial epileptic discharges profoundly disrupt normal cardiac rhythm, including cardiac asystole, the so-called arrhythmogenic epilepsy (AE). AIM To report initial results of observations of AE in patients with recurrent, unexplained, traumatic and/or convulsive syncope. METHODS Ten patients aged 49+/-20 years (median 49.5 years; nine women) underwent complete cardiological (including ambulatory Holter electrocardiogram (ECG), echocardiography and head-up tilt test [plus electrophysiology in four patients]) and neurological (including standard electroencephalogram [EEG], computed tomography [CT] and magnetic resonance imaging scan [MRI]) assessments. RESULTS After initial evaluation, neurocardiogenic syncope was suspected in six patients with tilt-induced hypotension+/-bradycardia. Further evaluation (prolonged inpatient video-EEG/ECG monitoring) was undertaken because of non-diagnostic syncope or uncertainty about the diagnosis of neurocardiogenic syncope. While monitored in the neurophysiology lab, a syncopal episode similar to the spontaneous episodes recurred in all 10 patients. Cardiac asystole preceded by partial seizure of temporal onset was documented in nine patients; a second-degree atrioventricular (AV) block with a cardiac rhythm of 30 beats per minute preceded by partial seizure of temporal onset was noted in one patient. Eight patients were treated successfully with antiepileptic drugs; two were refractory to antiepileptic therapy and required pacemaker implantation. No patient had recurrent syncope during a median follow-up of 102.5 months (mean 82.2+/-42; range 16-128 months). CONCLUSIONS In patients with recurrent, unexplained, traumatic and/or convulsive syncope, AE should be considered as a possible aetiology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy has been evaluated in randomized controlled trials, enrolling highly selected patients, mortality events in ICD patients have received little attention in routine medical care. We sought to assess the 24-month total and cause-specific mortality rates and their predictors in "real life" patients with an ICD. METHODS The Evaluation Médico-Economique du Défibrillateur Automatique Implantable study was a French multicenter, prospective, observational cohort study of ICD patients with a 2-year follow-up. Cause-specific mortality rates and predictors at implantation of sudden cardiac death (SCD) or progressive heart failure (HF) death were assessed using competing risk methodology. RESULTS From June 2001 to June 2003, 2,296 unselected patients were implanted and followed until June 2005. During a mean follow-up of 20.5 +/- 6.7 months, 274 deaths occurred: 29 (10.6%) were SCD and 146 (53.3%) were HF deaths, corresponding to 24-month cause-specific mortality rates of 1.4% (95% confidence interval 0.9%-1.9%) and 6.9% (95% confidence interval 5.8%-8.0%), respectively. Among the characteristics at implantation, ejection fraction (EF) <30% and history of atrial fibrillation were independently associated with SCD; age, high New York Heart Association class, systemic hypertension, prior atrial fibrillation, QRS duration, EF <30%, and lack of beta-blocker therapy were independently associated with HF death. CONCLUSIONS In this large cohort of "daily" patients, the 2-year incidence of SCD (1.4%) was comparable with the event rate observed in randomized controlled trials; HF remained the predominant mode of death. An EF <30% at implantation appears to be the most important predictor of ICD-unresponsive SCD.

Abstract
Background—
The Prospective Evaluation of Pacemaker Lead Endocarditis study is a multicenter, prospective survey of the incidence and risk factors of infectious complications after implantation of pacemakers and cardioverter-defibrillators.
Methods and Results—
Between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2000, 6319 consecutive recipients of implantable systems were enrolled at 44 medical centers and followed up for 12 months. All infectious complications were recorded, and their occurrence was related to the baseline demographic, clinical, and procedural characteristics. Among 5866 pacing systems, 3789 included 2 and 117 had >2 leads; among 453 implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, 178 were dual-lead systems. A total of 4461 de novo implantations occurred and 1858 pulse generator or lead replacements. Reinterventions were performed before hospital discharge in 101 patients. Single- and multiple-variable logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors; adjusted odds ratios (aORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. At 12 months, device-related infections were reported in 42 patients (0.68%; 95% CI, 0.47 to 0.89). The occurrence of infection was positively correlated with fever within 24 hours before the implantation procedure (aOR, 5.83; 95% CI, 2.00 to 16.98), use of temporary pacing before the implantation procedure (aOR, 2.46; 95% CI, 1.09 to 5.13), and early reinterventions (aOR, 15.04; 95% CI, 6.7 to 33.73). Implantation of a new system (aOR, 0.46; 95% CI, 0.24 to 0.87) and antibiotic prophylaxis (aOR, 0.4; 95% CI, 0.18 to 0.86) were negatively correlated with risk of infection.
Conclusions—
This study identified several factors of risk of device infection and confirmed the efficacy of antibiotic prophylaxis in recipients of new or replacement pacemakers or implantable cardioverter-defibrillators.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Aim In a prospective study, we tested the feasibility of implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) implantation under local anaesthesia (LA) with minimal sedation (MS) vs. short general anaesthesia (SGA) for defibrillation test (DT). METHODS AND RESULTS We implanted ICDs in 118 patients between October 2002 and November 2003. Surgery was performed under LA with MS. Depending on the day of admission, patients had DT without SGA with a shock delivered when patient is unconscious (MS group, n = 73) or with short general anaesthesia (SGA group, n = 45). The patients were asked to rate the intensity of pain on a 10-point visual analogue scale (VAS) at the end of the implantation procedure and for the patient of MS group just after DT (VAS-DT). Visual analogue scale was not influenced by the type of anaesthesia (MS vs. SGA). Univariate analysis showed that NYHA >III, 3 leads implanted and an incomplete understanding of the explanation on the procedure were risk factors of VAS >4. Only understanding of the explanation on the procedure has an influence on pain in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION ICD implantation under MS even for DT is feasible and acceptable for the patient.

BACKGROUND Frequent and unnecessary right ventricular apical pacing increases the risk of atrial fibrillation or congestive heart failure. We evaluated a new pacing algorithm, managed ventricular pacing (MVP) which automatically changes modes between AAI/R and DDD/R in patients receiving pacemakers for symptomatic bradycardia. METHODS Patients were randomized to the MVP mode or DDD/R mode for 1 month and then crossed over to the alternate pacing modality for an additional month. On completion of the crossover phase, the pacing mode selected was individualized and patients were followed for an additional 4 months. RESULTS Of the 129 patients who successfully completed the crossover study, the cumulative percent ventricular pacing was significantly reduced in the MVP mode (median 1.4%) compared to the DDD/R mode (median 89.6%, 94.0% relative reduction; 95% CI 89.3-98.8%, P < 0.001). Patients with sinus node disease (SND, n = 51) when compared to patients with AV block (AVB) (n = 68) experienced a greater reduction in ventricular pacing with the MVP mode compared to the DDD/R mode (median relative reduction 99.1%; 95% CI 97.5-99.9% vs median relative reduction 60.1%; 95% CI 16.7-93.9% P < 0.001). The reduced percent ventricular pacing during MVP was sustained over longer term follow-up. CONCLUSIONS The majority of patients with a bradycardia indication for cardiac pacing do not require ventricular pacing most of the time. The MVP mode significantly reduces unnecessary right ventricular pacing. This mode benefits even patients with intermittent AVB and is sustained over longer term follow-up.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Implantable defibrillator is the recognized treatment of sudden cardiac death. Miniaturization of the devices allows implantation in children. METHODS This multicentric retrospective study analyzed data of 33 children aged 18 years and less who were implanted from 1990 to 2005. RESULTS Age of patients are 10 to 18 years, 20 patients were implanted after a resuscitation of sudden death, 10 after a syncope, 2 after a ventricular tachycardia and 1 in a prophylactic way. Tachycardias on primary electrical disease are most frequent (46%). Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy accounts for 22%, DAVD for 14%, congenital cardiopathies for 12%. Seventeen patients received appropriate shocks and 14 patients had inappropriate shocks. There were two unexplained deaths. Five leads fractures and two device infections were noted. CONCLUSION Implantable defibrillator is an effective treatment for children high-risk of sudden death. Occurrence of inappropriate shocks due to sinusal tachycardia, infections and leads fractures are frequent.

Abstract
AIMS The objective of this study is to characterize the incidence of peri-operative severe adverse events (AEs) related to the post-operative use of heparin in patients undergoing pacemaker surgery. METHODS AND RESULTS We retrospectively compared the outcome of 38 patients with mechanical valves (MVs) and 76 patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) with control cases matched for gender, age, and surgical details. Heparin was systematically used post-operatively in MV patients, but left to clinical judgment in AF patients. The relative risk for severe haemorrhagic AEs was 11 (CI 1.5-81.1, P < 0.01) in the MV group when compared with matched controls and 8 (CI 1.0-62.5, P < 0.05) in the AF group. Overall, the relative risk of heparin use in the post-operative period was 14 (CI 1.88-104, P = 0.0006) and the post-operative stay was prolonged from 7 days in this group when compared with control cases (P < 0.0001).The variables associated with haemorrhage were the delay to restart heparin after surgery and the presence of an MV. CONCLUSION Post-operative use of heparin increases morbidity of pacemaker implantation. A different approach to management of these patients is possible.

Abstract
Atrial vulnerability reflects the ability of the atrium to fibrillate. ISAV (Ischemic stroke and atrial vulnerability) is a French epidemiological registry whose main goal is to assess the evolution modalities of patients in whom an electrophysiological study of the atrium has been performed. A group of 269 patients with a history of non elucidated ischemic stroke and an electrophysiological study of the atrium performed in a mean delay of 3 months after the stroke has been included. Their mean age at the time of the stroke was 55 +/- 15.8 years. The electrophysiological study has measured the effective refractory period of the atrium, the locoregional right intra-atrial conduction time, the index of latent atrial vulnerability and assessed the inductibility. The mean delay between the date of the stroke and the date of the last news was 4.4 +/- 2.8 years. We observed 12 deaths and 11 patients presented during the follow up a spontaneous atrial arrhythmia and 17 a recurrence of stroke. If we consider the occurrence of the 28 combined events (atrial arrhythmia and/or stroke), it is not correlated with the presence of an atrial septal defect nor with the existence of an atrial vulnerability. On the contrary this occurrence is correlated with tobacco consumption and/or arterial hypertension; 82% of patients have these risk factors versus 54% of patients without events (p = 0.004). This association is not significant in patients younger than 55 years.

Abstract
AIMS Insufficient data exists regarding predictors of electrical storms (ES) and clinical outcome in patients treated with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). The purpose of this study was to delineate a subgroup of patients likely to experience ES and to determine the impact of ES on mortality in ICD recipients. METHODS AND RESULTS Baseline characteristics of 307 ICD-treated patients were retrospectively analysed. ES was defined as two or more ventricular tachyarrhythmias within 24 h leading to an immediate electrical therapy (antitachycardia pacing and/or shock), separated by a period of sinus rhythm. Clinical characteristics and survival of 123 patients experiencing a total of 294 episodes of ES (median 2 ES/patient, range 1-9), were compared with those of 184 ES-free patients during a median follow-up of 826 days (inter-quartile 1141 days). Median actuarial duration for the first ES occurrence after ICD implant was 1417 days [95% confidence interval (CI) 1061-2363] with a median follow-up of 816 days (7-4642 days) in ES-free patients. Univariate analysis identified older age, depressed left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), ventricular tachycardia (VT) as index arrhythmia, chronic renal failure and absence of lipid-lowering drugs as variables significantly associated with an increased risk of ES. Multivariable Cox analysis confirmed an independent predictive value for chronic renal failure [hazard ratio (HR) 1.54, 95% CI 0.95-2.51, P=0.052], VT (HR 2.20, 95% CI 1.44-3.37, P=0.0003), and LVEF (HR 0.98, 95% CI 0.97-0.99, P=0.027). In contrast, diabetics (HR 0.49, 95% CI 0.27-0.90, P=0.022) were less affected by ES. There was no difference in survival between both groups. CONCLUSION ES is frequent but does not increase mortality in ICD's recipients. Patients with severe systolic dysfunction, chronic renal failure and VT as initial arrhythmia are likely to experience ES. Diabetics are less affected by ES.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess non-invasively the acute effects of cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) on functional mitral regurgitation (MR) at rest and during dynamic exercise. METHODS 21 patients with left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction and functional MR at rest, treated with CRT, were studied. Each patient performed a symptom-limited maximal exercise with continuous two dimensional Doppler echocardiography twice. The first exercise was performed with CRT; the second exercise was performed without CRT. Mitral regurgitant flow volume (RV), effective regurgitant orifice area (ERO) and LV dP/dt were measured at rest and at peak exercise. RESULTS CRT mildly reduced resting mitral ERO (mean 8 (SEM 2) v 11 (2) mm(2) without CRT, p = 0.02) and RV (13 (3) v 18 (3) ml without CRT, p = 0.03). CRT attenuated the spontaneous increase in mitral ERO and RV during exercise (1 (1) v 9 (2) mm(2), p = 0.004 and 1 (1) v 8 (2) ml, p = 0.004, respectively). CRT also significantly increased exercise-induced changes in LV dP/dt (140 (46) v 479 (112) mm Hg/s, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Attenuation of functional MR, induced by an increase in LV contractility during dynamic exercise, may contribute to the beneficial clinical outcome of CRT in patients with chronic heart failure and LV asynchrony.

Abstract
AIMS Functional mitral regurgitation (MR) and myocardial asynchronism occur commonly in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and affect adversely their prognosis and symptoms. The aim of this study was to evaluate the mechanisms of changes in MR severity during dynamic exercise in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). METHODS AND RESULTS Seventy patients with CHF due to left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction [LV ejection fraction (EF) <40%] and functional MR were studied. All were in sinus rhythm. Medications were left unchanged for the study. Each patient performed a maximal symptom-limited exercise test with continuous 2D-Doppler echocardiography. Mitral regurgitant volume (RV) and effective regurgitant orifice (ERO) were determined at rest and during exercise. LV asynchrony using Doppler tissue imaging and interventricular asynchrony using conventional pulsed-Doppler were evaluated at rest. Resting LV EF averaged 25+/-8%. Mean resting LV and interventricular mechanical delays were 56+/-50 and 43+/-37 ms, respectively. The overall median values for mitral ERO and RV did not significantly change during dynamic exercise (11 [7-16] vs. 11 [6-21] mm2 and 14 [10-22] vs. 12 [9-23] mL, respectively). However, changes in mitral ERO and RV were individually variable and significantly correlated with the degree of LV asynchronism (r=0.66, P<0.0001 and r=0.66, P<0.0001, respectively). CONCLUSION Changes in MR are variable during dynamic exercise. LV asynchronism at rest substantially contributes to worsening of functional MR during dynamic exercise in patients with CHF due to LV systolic dysfunction.
