Risk stratification for ICD therapy
• Incidence of SCD in unselected adult population- only 2 per 1000 p/yr
• Currently, LVEF- 1⁰ factor to select pts for ICD• SAECG, baseline V arrhythmia, T alternans,
autonomic function, EP
![Page 4: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• Non-invasive evaluation for SCD– Cardiovascular function– h/o syncope– Ventricular arrhythmias– ECG– Autonomic function evaluation– Serum markers
• Invasive evaluation of SCD– EPS
![Page 5: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Cardiovascular function
• LVEF- most consistent & powerful predictor of all-cause & cardiac mortality in IHD & DCMP
• NYHA- Despite subjective, imprecise- simple bedside potent risk-stratification tool
• Degree of NYHA class- Not linearly related • NYHA classes II & III - much more likely
arrhythmia than class IV

• Pts with NYHA IV CCF- very ↑mortality from progressive pump failure
• Therefore, such pts not usually considered appropriate candidates for ICD therapy
• Primary prevention ICD trials have excluded pts with NYHA IV
![Page 9: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Pts with syncope have high risk of SCA
• In CCF pts with a h/o syncope- incidence of SCD - 45%, V/S incidence 12% in pts with no h/o syncope (p<0.00001)
Middlekauff etal. Syncope in advanced heart failure: high risk of sudden death regardless of origin of syncope.J Am Coll Cardiol 1993;21:110 –116
![Page 10: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Ventricular arrhythmias
• PVC & NSVT in established SHD- risk marker of SCD- magnitude varies with nature & extent of underlying diseases
• IHD- freq & repetitiveness of PVCs, + ↓ LVEF (<30%)- high risk of SCD (Bigger et al- Circulation 1984;69:250–8)
• Length but not rate of NSVT- predictor of major arrhythmias in DCM– 3–4 beat runs of NSVT- similar arrhythmia-free survival as pts
without NSVT , but incidence of major arrhythmias ↑to 10% per yr in 10 beat runs NSVT (P<0.05). (Grimm et al- Pacing Clin Electrophysiol 2005;28:S207–10)

![Page 12: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Standard ECG
• Prolonged QRS duration (usually ≥120 ms) and repolarization abn- independent predictors of SCD
• Prolonged QTc(>420 ms, esp long-QT synd) and familial short-QTc (≤300 ms) indicate an ↑risk of SCD
![Page 13: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Microvolt T-wave alternans
• ABCD trial- – Positive & negative predictive values of MTWA
similar to EPS at 1 year– MTWA & EPS have synergistic value
• MASTER-I– MTWA did not predict life-threatening ventricular
tachyin 575 post-MI with LVEF <30%-but appear to predict all-cause mortality
![Page 14: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
SAECG
• MUSTT -SAECG strong predictor of arrhy death & total mortality
• SAECG- excellent - predictive value in IHD, + predictive value is low –limits in preventive therapy
• DCM- available data conflicting-– MACAS trial –abn SAECG not helpful for arrhythmic
risk prediction. (Grimm et al. Marburg cardiomyopathy study. Circulation 2003;108:2883–91)
![Page 15: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Serum markers
• BNP might be useful• 521 survivors of AMI- BNP potent predictor even
after adjusting for other clinical variables, inclu LVEF. (Tapanainen et al. J Am Coll Cardiol 2004;43:757–63)
• 121 ICD recipients with MI -↑BNP and CRP- asso ↑VT incidence. (Blangy et al. Europace 2007;9:724–9)
• BNP is primarily a marker of progressive CHF, which itself may lead to ↑arrhyth- role of BNP- more studies are needed
![Page 16: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Invasive evaluation of SCD
• IHD- inducibility of sustained V tachy during EPS- well-established marker of SCD
• Limitations- – Relatively high number of false-negative- Non-
inducibility of VT may not imply a lack of risk – DCM-value of EPS- controversial
![Page 17: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial (MADIT, now called MADIT-I)
![Page 18: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• 196 pts- • NYHA- I, II, III with prior MI (≥3/52); LVEF ≤0.35;
a documented asymptomatic unsustained VT; and inducible, nonsuppressible VT on EPS
• Sustained VT/VF reproducibly induced & not suppressed after IV procainamide
• CABG <2/12 or PTCA <3/12 were excluded• ICD (n-95-45+50) V/S conventional medical
therapy (n-101)• Death from any cause- end point
![Page 19: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Average follow-up- 27/12• ICD- 15 Ds (11card) V/S Convnt- 39 Ds (27card) • Hazard ratio for overall mortality- 0.46• Relative risk reduction of 54% with ICD
![Page 20: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

• Subset analysis – Survival benefit from ICD- only in high-risk pts – LVEF <26%, HF requiring therapy, QRS ≥ 120 – Benefit ↑progressively as a function of no of risk
factors- greatest reduction in mortality with ICD in those with 2 (HR 0.30) or 3 risk factors (HR 0.20)
![Page 22: Primary prevention of SCD using ICD- Review of literature](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103101/5681431a550346895daf741d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

At 8 years of follow-up

• Dual-chamber ICDs were programmed to active DDD pacing in MADIT-II regardless of conduction abnormalities as at the time of the study it was hypothesized that AV sequential pacing improves CCF sympts
• Dual Chamber and VVI Implantable Defibrillator (DAVID) trial- high frequency of RV pacing with dual-chamber ICD- contributing factor to ↑CCF events & mortality
