New permanent bundle-branch block and long-term prognosis of patients with new onset ST-elevation myocardial infarction who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention.

[PMID: 36072847 PMCID: PMC9441698 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2022.892623] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the potential predictive value of permanent RBBB and LBBB for longer-term prognosis in patients with new-onset STEMI who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: Patients with new-onset STEMI that underwent emergency PCI at our department from June 2012 to September 2020 were included in the study. Gensini score (GS) was employed to evaluate the severity of coronary lesions. The primary endpoint of the study was the occurrence of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs), the composite of cardiac mortality, recurrence of myocardial infarction, cardiac shock, stroke, stent thrombosis, or revascularization. We also set all-cause mortality as a secondary endpoint. Results: Out of the 547 patients, 29 patients had new-onset permanent LBBB, 51 patients had new-onset permanent RBBB, and 467 patients had no bundle-branch block (BBB). The occurrence of no BBB, new permanent LBBB, or RBBB was not associated with the severity of coronary artery lesions as evaluated by the GS. After follow-up at an average of 43.93 months, MACCEs occurred in 52 patients. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients with new-onset RBBB were at greater risk for MACCEs compared to those with new onset LBBB (χ2 = 5.107, p = 0.021). Also, an independent correlation was found between new permanent RBBB and LBBB and MACCEs risk. The adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) were 6.862 [95% confidence interval (CI) of 3.764–12.510] for the new-onset permanent RBBB and 3.395 (95% CI of 1.280–9.005) for LBBB, compared to those with no BBB, respectively (both p < 0.05). Conclusion: New onset permanent RBBB in patients with new onset STEMI who underwent PCI may be correlated independently with increased risk of poor long-term prognosis.

PACING AND CLINICAL ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY: PACE 2020; 43:781-790. [PMID: 32524648 DOI: 10.1111/pace.13982] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2020] [Revised: 05/29/2020] [Accepted: 06/09/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
AIM To assess the electrocardiogram patterns of paced QRS narrowing after successful left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) and echocardiographic measurements in patients with bradycardia and bundle branch block (BBB). METHODS We prospectively enrolled 55 consecutive bradycardia patients with BBB and left ventricular ejection fraction ≥40% who had attempted LBBAP. Successful LBBAP was defined as paced QRS morphology of a right BBB (RBBB) pattern in lead V1 and a recording of abruptly shortened and then constant stimulus to peak left ventricular activation time with high and low output. Pacing characteristics and echocardiographic measurements were evaluated perioperatively and at 6-month follow-up. RESULTS The success rate of LBBAP was 83.6% in patients with BBB, and median cumulative X-ray dose-area product was 100.5 µGym2 (60.0, 179.3). LBBAP was successful in 19 of 26 patients with left BBB (LBBB) (73.1%) and in 27 of 29 patients with RBBB (93.1%). The QRS duration (QRSd) was significantly shortened in patients with LBBB (QRSd 169.4 ± 22.6 to 119.6 ± 9.5 ms), and five forms of QRSd narrowing were observed in patients with RBBB with the mean QRSd shortened from 143.1 ± 16.6 ms to 119.5 ± 11.7 ms. The thresholds for narrowing of QRSd were higher in RBBB than LBBB (1.74 ± 0.36 V/0.4 ms vs 0.79 ± 0.17 V/0.4 ms, P < .001). During the 6-month follow-up, both left and right ventricular synchronies were improved, and narrow QRSd persisted in patients with BBB. CONCLUSION In most bradycardia patients, RBBB could be completely or partially narrowed by LBBAP at different pacing models in addition to the correction of LBBB with LBBAP.
