Abstract

Pulseless ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation (VT/VF) is the initial rhythm in a third of in-hospital cardiac arrest patients. Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) device use remains poorly understood in this population. We conducted an observational analysis of temporal trends in the utilization of MCS in VT/VF IHCA between January 2008 and December 2014 utilizing the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database. Using multivariable analysis, we assessed factors associated with MCS use and survival to discharge. Among 151,628 hospitalizations with VT/VF IHCA, 14,981 (9.9%) received MCS. Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) was the most commonly used MCS (9.1%). From 2008 to 2014, there was significant increase in the utilization of MCS (8.7-11%; ptrend  < 0.0001). On multivariable analysis, there was 12-fold increase and three-fold increase in the utilization of PVAD and ECMO respectively; however, there was no significant change in the use of IABP. Over the seven-year sample period, there was significant increase in the overall survival to hospital discharge (35.4-43.5%; ptrend  < 0.0001). Survival to hospital discharge increased in both MCS and non-MCS groups. There was significant increase in utilization of MCS after...Continue Reading

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
