Zhang HD, Tang M, Zhang JT. Characteristics of Primary Bradyarrhythmia in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: A 10-Year, Single-Center Analysis. J Cardiovasc Dev Dis 2022; 9:jcdd9110370. [PMID: 36354769 PMCID: PMC9698031 DOI: 10.3390/jcdd9110370] [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: 09/12/2022] [Revised: 10/20/2022] [Accepted: 10/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Secondary bradyarrhythmias in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) have been extensively reported. The prevalence and characteristics of primary bradyarrhythmias in HCM have yet to be investigated. Methods: We retrospectively enrolled 101 consecutive patients with HCM who were referred to the arrhythmia center from May 2010 to October 2020. The clinical features of patients with bradyarrhythmias were analyzed. Results: Twenty-nine (28.7%) patients had primary bradyarrhythmias, and six (5.9%) patients had secondary third-degree atrioventricular block (AVB). Of the 29 patients, 17 (58.6%) had sinus node dysfunction (SND), 14 (48.3%) had AVB, and two (6.9%) had both SND and AVB. The median age was 62 years old, and 69% were male. Six (20.7%) patients had left ventricular obstructive outflow tract obstruction, 15 (51.7%) had a history of syncope, and one (3.4%) had a family history of HCM. Most patients (86.2%) had New York Heart Association functional class I or II, and the median left ventricular ejection fraction was 63%. A total of 22 patients received pacemaker implantation, including 17 (77.3%) dual-chamber pacing, four (18.2%) single-chamber ventricular pacing, and one (4.5%) cardiac resynchronization therapy. Conclusions: Primary bradyarrhythmias need to be evaluated in HCM patients with arrhythmia-related symptoms. Patients with HCM might need pacemaker implantation for primary bradyarrhythmias.

Abstract
"Despite being one of the best understood cardiac arrhythmias, the clinical meaning of atrial flutter varies according to the specific context, and its optimal treatment may be limited by both the suboptimal response to rate/rhythm control drugs and by the complexity of the underlying substrate. In this article, we present a state-of-the-art overview of mechanisms, prognostic impact, and medical/interventional management options for atrial flutter in several specific patient populations, including heart failure, cardiomyopathies, muscular dystrophies, posttransplant patients, patients with respiratory disorders, athletes, and subjects with preexcitation, aiming to stimulate further research in this challenging field and facilitate appropriate patient care."
