Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Atrial fibrillation (AF) and myocardial infarction (MI) often coexist, and this overlapping nature leads to heightened morbidity and increases the need for comprehensive risk management strategies. The precise trajectory and implications of atrial fibrillation complicating myocardial infarction remain subjects of debate, with divergent reports presenting varying accounts. This review seeks to provide an in-depth exploration of the existing literature to cover the predictors, implication, and available management of new onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) complicating acute myocardial infarction (AMI). RECENT FINDINGS Clinical risk factors, laboratory markers, echocardiographic findings, and angiographic data can be used to assess patients at risk of developing NOAF post-AMI. The diagnosis of NOAF post MI has been associated with overall worse short- and long-term prognosis with increased risk for mortality, cardiogenic shock, stroke, and bleeding, along with reduced rates of coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention, and higher risk of future recurrence of AF and ischemic stroke. Despite the paucity of preventative treatment, the optimal management of acute coronary syndrome and the use of guideline directed therapy do decrease the risk of development of atrial fibrillation post myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Surgical intervention in the setting of cardiogenic shock (CS) is burdened with high mortality. Due to acute condition, detailed diagnoses and risk assessment is often precluded. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a risk factor for perioperative complications and worse survival but little is known about AF patients operated in CS. Current analysis aimed to determine prognostic impact of preoperative AF in patients undergoing heart surgery in CS. We analyzed data from the Polish National Registry of Cardiac Surgery (KROK) Procedures. Between 2012 and 2021, 332,109 patients underwent cardiac surgery in 37 centers; 4852 (1.5%) patients presented with CS. Of those 624 (13%) patients had AF history. Cox proportional hazards models were used for computations. Propensity score (nearest neighbor) matching for the comparison of patients with and without AF was performed. Median follow-up was 4.6 years (max.10.0), mean age was 62 (± 15) years and 68% patients were men. Thirty-day mortality was 36% (1728 patients). The origin of CS included acute myocardial infarction (1751 patients, 36%), acute aortic dissection (1075 patients, 22%) and valvular dysfunction (610 patients, 13%). In an unadjusted analysis, patients with underlying AF had almost 20% higher mortality risk (HR 1.19, 95% CIs 1.06-1.34; P = 0.004). Propensity score matching returned 597 pairs with similar baseline characteristics; AF remained a significant prognostic factor for worse survival (HR 1.19, 95% CI 1.00-1.40; P = 0.045). Among patients with CS referred for cardiac surgery, history of AF was a significant risk factor for mortality. Role of concomitant AF ablation and/or left atrial appendage occlusion or more aggressive perioperative circulatory support should be addressed in the future.

Does Atrial Fibrillation Deteriorate the Prognosis in Patients With Septic or Cardiogenic Shock? Am J Cardiol 2023; 205:141-149. [PMID: 37598599 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjcard.2023.07.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2023] [Revised: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 08/22/2023]
Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with increased risk of mortality in various clinical conditions. However, the prognostic role of preexisting and new-onset AF in critically ill patients, such as patients with septic or cardiogenic shock remains unclear. This study investigates the prognostic impact of preexisting and new-onset AF on 30-day all-cause mortality in patients with septic or cardiogenic shock. Consecutive patients with sepsis, or septic or cardiogenic shock were enrolled in 2 prospective, monocentric registries from 2019 to 2021. Statistical analyses included Kaplan-Meier, multivariable logistic, and Cox proportional regression analyses. In total, 644 patients were included (cardiogenic shock: n = 273; sepsis/septic shock: n = 361). The prevalence of AF was 41% (29% with preexisting AF, 12% with new-onset AF). Within the entire study cohort, neither preexisting AF (log-rank p = 0.542; hazard ratio [HR] 1.075, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.848 to 1.363, p = 0.551) nor new-onset AF (log-rank p = 0.782, HR = 0.957, 95% CI 0.683 to 1.340, p = 0.797) were associated with 30-day all-cause mortality compared with non-AF. In patients with AF, ventricular rates >120 beats/min compared with ≤120 beats/min were shown to increase the risk of reaching the primary end point in AF patients with cardiogenic shock (log-rank p = 0.006, HR 1.886, 95% CI 1.164 to 3.057, p = 0.010). Furthermore, logistic regression analyses suggested increased age was the only predictor of new-onset AF (odds ratio 1.042, 95% CI 1.018 to 1.066, p = 0.001). In conclusion, neither the presence of preexisting AF nor the occurrence of new-onset AF was associated with the risk of 30-day all-cause mortality in consecutive patients admitted with cardiogenic shock.

One-year outcomes in cardiogenic shock triggered by supraventricular tachycardia: an analysis of the FRENSHOCK multicenter prospective registry. Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1167738. [PMID: 37731529 PMCID: PMC10507701 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1167738] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2023] [Accepted: 08/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Cardiogenic shock (CS) is the most severe form of heart failure (HF), resulting in high early and long-term mortality. Characteristics of CS secondary to supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) are poorly reported. Based on a large registry of unselected CS, we aimed to compare 1-year outcomes between SVT-triggered and non-SVT-triggered CS. Methods FRENSHOCK is a French prospective registry including 772 CS patients from 49 centers. For each patient, the investigator could report 1-3 CS triggers from a pre-established list (ischemic, mechanical complications, ventricular/supraventricular arrhythmia, bradycardia, iatrogenesis, infection, non-compliance, and others). In this study, 1-year outcomes [rehospitalizations, mortality, heart transplantation (HTx), ventricular assist devices (VAD)] were analyzed and adjusted for independent predictive factors. Results Among 769 CS patients included, 100 were SVT-triggered (13%), of which 65 had SVT as an exclusive trigger (8.5%). SVT-triggered CS patients exhibited a higher proportion of male individuals with a more frequent history of cardiomyopathy or chronic kidney disease and more profound CS (biventricular failure and multiorgan failure). At 1 year, there was no difference in all-cause mortality (43% vs. 45.3%, adjusted HR 0.9 (95% CI 0.59-1.39), p = 0.64), need for HTx or VAD [10% vs. 10%, aOR 0.88 (0.41-1.88), p = 0.74], or rehospitalizations [49.4% vs. 44.4%, aOR 1.24 (0.78-1.98), p = 0.36]. Patients with SVT as an exclusive trigger presented more 1-year rehospitalizations [52.8% vs. 43.3%, aOR 3.74 (1.05-10.5), p = 0.01]. Conclusion SVT is a frequent trigger of CS alone or in association in more than 10% of miscellaneous CS cases. Although SVT-triggered CS patients were more comorbid with more pre-existing cardiomyopathies and HF incidences, they presented similar rates of mortality, HTx, and VAD at 1 year, arguing for a better overall prognosis.

Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a frequently used mechanical cardiopulmonary support for rescuing critically ill patients for whom conventional medical therapies have failed. However, ECMO is associated with several complications, such as acute kidney injury, hemorrhage, thromboembolism, and acute brain injury (ABI). Among these, ABI, particularly intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) and infarction, is recognized as the primary cause of mortality during ECMO support. Furthermore, survivors often suffer significant long-term morbidities, including neurocognitive impairments, motor disturbances, and behavioral problems. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the different subtypes of ECMO-related ABI and the updated advance mechanisms, which could be helpful for the early diagnosis and potential neuromonitoring of ECMO-related ABI.

Arrhythmic events and mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock on inotropic support: results of the DOREMI randomized trial. Can J Cardiol 2022; 39:394-402.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inotropic support is widely used in the management of cardiogenic shock (CS). Existing data on the incidence and significance of arrhythmic events in patients with CS on inotropic support is at high risk of bias. METHODS The DObutamine compaREd to MIlrinone (DOREMI) trial randomized patients to receive dobutamine or milrinone in a double-blind fashion. Patients with and without arrhythmic events (defined as arrhythmias requiring intervention or sustained ventricular arrhythmias) were compared to (1) identify factors associated with their occurrence and (2) examine their association with in-hospital mortality and secondary outcomes. RESULTS Ninety-two patients (47.9%) had arrhythmic events, occurring equally with dobutamine and milrinone (P=0.563). The need for vasopressor support at inotrope initiation and a history of atrial fibrillation were positively associated with arrhythmic events whereas predominant right ventricular dysfunction, previous myocardial infarction, and increasing left ventricular ejection fraction were negatively associated with them. Supraventricular arrhythmic events were not associated with mortality (RR 0.97, 95% CI 0.68-1.40, P=0.879) but were positively associated with resuscitated cardiac arrests and hospital length of stay. Ventricular arrhythmic events were positively associated with mortality (RR 1.66, 95% CI 1.13-2.43; P=0.026) and resuscitated cardiac arrests. Arrhythmic events were most often treated with amiodarone (97%) and electrical cardioversion (27%), which were not associated with mortality. CONCLUSIONS Clinically relevant arrhythmic events occur in approximately half of patients with CS treated with dobutamine or milrinone and are associated with adverse clinical outcomes. Five factors may help identify patients most at risk of arrhythmic events.

Atrial tachyarrhythmias and worsening heart failure frequently coexist and potentially progress to a life threatening condition. Therapeutic approach requires simultaneous management of rapid ventricular response and heart failure symptom relief in order to improve haemodynamic stability and cardiac function. Landiolol is an ultra-short-acting b-adrenergic receptor blocker with high b1 selectivity incorporated in 2020 European Society of Cardiology guidelines for the management of atrial fibrillation. We provide a report of two cases with atrial fibrillation treated with landiolol in the acute setting of pulmonary oedema and cardiogenic shock, respectively. Additionally, we searched the international database PUBMED (MEDLINE, PubMed Central) to retrieve scientific evidence regarding its implementation in the treatment of atrial tachyarrhythmias in patients with cardiac dysfunction. Recent studies support the use of landiolol in patients with acute heart failure and atrial tachyarrhythmias. Compared to digoxin, landiolol proved to be more effective in controlling heart rate, with minimal adverse effects. Moreover, landiolol may be helpful in the conversion of atrial tachyarrhythmia to sinus rhythm. A more potent effect has been reported in patients with heart failure with preserved or mildly reduced ejection fraction, small left ventricular volume and high blood pressure. Likewise, administration of low doses of landiolol in patients with cardiogenic shock and atrial tachyarrhythmias reduced heart rate and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure and improved cardiac contractility without reducing blood pressure. Landiolol seems to be an attractive alternative in the acute management of patients with atrial tachyarrhythmias and cardiac dysfunction, though further clinical trials are needed to establish its role.

Cardiogenic shock with highly complicated course after influenza A virus infection treated with vva-ECMO and Impella CP (ECMELLA): a case report. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2021; 21:528. [PMID: 34743690 PMCID: PMC8572692 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-021-02346-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2021] [Accepted: 10/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The value of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in cardiogenic shock, especially the combination of the ECMELLA approach (Impella combined with ECMO), remains controversial. CASE PRESENTATION A previously healthy 33-year-old female patient was submitted to a local emergency department with a flu-like infection and febrile temperatures up to 39 °C. The patient was tested positive for type-A influenza, however negative for SARS-CoV-2. Despite escalated invasive ventilation, refractory hypercapnia (paCO2: 22 kPa) with severe respiratory acidosis (pH: 6.9) and a rising norepinephrine rate occurred within a few hours. Due to a Horovitz-Index < 100, out-of-centre veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (vv-ECMO)-implantation was performed. A CT-scan done because of anisocoria revealed an extended dissection of the right vertebral artery. While the initial left ventricular function was normal, echocardiography revealed severe global hypokinesia. After angiographic exclusion of coronary artery stenoses, we geared up LV unloading by additional implantation of an Impella CP and expanded the vv-ECMO to a veno-venous-arterial ECMO (vva-ECMO). Clinically relevant bleeding from the punctured femoral arteries resulted in massive transfusion and was treated by vascular surgery later on. Under continued MCS, LVEF increased to approximately 40% 2 days after the initiation of ECMELLA. After weaning, the Impella CP was explanted at day 5 and the vva-ECMO was removed on day 9, respectively. The patient was discharged in an unaffected neurological condition to rehabilitation 25 days after the initial admission. CONCLUSIONS This exceptional case exemplifies the importance of aggressive MCS in severe cardiogenic shock, which may be especially promising in younger patients with non-ischaemic cardiomyopathy and potentially reversible causes of cardiogenic shock. This case impressively demonstrates that especially young patients may achieve complete neurological restoration, even though the initial prognosis may appear unfavourable.

Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) represents an established technique to provide temporary cardiac and/or pulmonary support. ECMO, in veno-venous, veno-arterial or in extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal modality, is associated with a high rate of brain injuries. These complications have been reported in 7 to 15% of adults and 20% of neonates, and are associated with poor survival. Thromboembolic events, loss of cerebral autoregulation, alteration of the blood-brain barrier, and hemorrhage related to anticoagulation represent the main causes of severe brain injury during ECMO. The most frequent forms of acute neurological injuries in ECMO patients are intracranial hemorrhage (2-21%), ischemic stroke (2-10%), seizures (2-6%), and hypoxic-ischemic brain injury; brain death may also occur in this population. Other frequent complications are infarction (1-8%) and cerebral edema (2-10%), as well as neuropsychological and psychiatric sequelae, including posttraumatic stress disorder.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients suffering an acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock (AMICS) may experience clinical deterioration with concomitant atrial fibrillation (AF). Recent data suggest that percutaneous ventricular assist devices (pVADs) provide superior hemodynamic support over intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) in AMICS. In patients with AF+AMICS, however, outcomes data comparing these two devices remain limited. METHODS Using the National Inpatient Sample datasets (2008-2014) and a propensity-score matched analysis, we compared the outcomes of AMICS+AF hospitalized patients undergoing PCI with pVAD vs. IABP support. RESULTS A total of 12,842 AMICS+AF patients were identified (pVAD=468, IABP=12,374). The matched groups (pVAD=443, IABP=443) were comparable in terms of mean age (70.3 ± 12.0 vs. 70.4 ± 11.0yrs, p = 0.92). The utilization of pVAD was higher in whites but lower in Medicare/Medicaid beneficiaries as compared to IABP. The pVAD group demonstrated higher rates of obesity (13.6% vs. 7.8%, p = 0.006) and dyslipidemia (48.4% vs. 41.8%, p = 0.05). There was no difference in the in-hospital mortality (40.5% vs. 36.8%, p = 0.25); however, pVAD group had a lower incidence of post-procedural MI and higher incidences of stroke (7.8% vs. 4.4%, p = 0.03), hemorrhage (5.6% vs. 2.3%, p = 0.01), discharges to home health care (13.5% vs. 10.1%, p<0.001) and to other facilities (29.1% vs. 24.9%, p<0.001) as compared to IABP group. There was no difference between the groups in terms of mean length of stay or hospital charges. CONCLUSIONS All-cause inpatient mortality was similar in AMICS+AF patients undergoing PCI who were treated with either pVAD or IABP. The pVAD group, however, experienced more complications while consuming greater healthcare resources.

Clinical impact of controlling nutritional status score on the prognosis of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Hematol Oncol 2020; 38:309-317. [PMID: 32223021 DOI: 10.1002/hon.2732] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2020] [Revised: 02/26/2020] [Accepted: 03/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
The controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score is a nutritional index calculated from serum albumin and total cholesterol levels and lymphocyte counts. Its role in predicting clinical outcomes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has not been evaluated. In this retrospective study, data from 476 patients with DLBCL were analyzed. The cutoff value of the CONUT score was set as 4. CONUT score significantly stratified the overall survival (OS) and the progression-free-survival (PFS) (5-year OS, 49.0% vs 83.2%, P < .001; 5-year PFS, 46.1% vs 73.1%, P < .001) of the patients. Among patients at high-intermediate or high risk, as per the National Comprehensive Cancer Network International Prognostic Index (NCCN-IPI), 5-year OS was lower in patients with high CONUT scores than in those with low CONUT scores (high-intermediate risk, 51.2% vs 75.5%, P < .001; high risk, 29.9% vs 63.3%, P = .007). Additionally, in patients with high CONUT scores, maintenance of relative dose intensity (RDI) of chemotherapy did not affect the 5-year OS (RDI > 80% vs RDI ≤ 80%: 59.8% vs 50.9%, P = .73). In the present study, we have demonstrated that the CONUT score is an independent prognostic factor in patients with DLBCL.

Burden of Arrhythmias in Acute Myocardial Infarction Complicated by Cardiogenic Shock. Am J Cardiol 2020; 125:1774-1781. [PMID: 32307093 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjcard.2020.03.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2020] [Revised: 03/09/2020] [Accepted: 03/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
There are limited data on arrhythmias in acute myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS). Using a 17-year AMI-CS population from the National Inpatient Sample, we identified common arrhythmias - atrial fibrillation (AF), atrial flutter, supraventricular tachycardia, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and atrioventricular blocks (AVB). Admissions with concomitant cardiac surgery were excluded. Outcomes of interest included temporal trends, predictors, in-hospital mortality, and resource utilization in cohorts with and without arrhythmias. Of the 420,319 admissions with AMI-CS during 2000 to 2016, arrhythmias were noted in 213,718 (51%). AF (45%), ventricular tachycardia (35%) and ventricular fibrillation (30%) were the most common arrhythmias. Compared with those without, the cohort w`ith arrhythmias was more often male, of white race, with ST-segment elevation AMI-CS presentation, and had higher rates of cardiac arrest and acute organ failure (all p <0.001). Temporal trends of prevalence revealed a stable trend of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias and declining trend in AVB. The cohort with arrhythmias had higher unadjusted (42% vs 41%; odds ratio [OR] 1.03 [95% confidence interval 1.02 to 1.05]; p <0.001), but not adjusted (OR 1.01 [95% CI 0.99 to 1.03]; p = 0.22) in-hospital mortality compared with those without. The cohort with arrhythmias had longer hospital stay (9 ± 10 vs 7 ± 9 days; p <0.001) and higher hospitalization costs ($124,000 ± 146,000 vs $91,000 ± 115,000; p <0.001). In the cohort with arrhythmias, older age, female sex, non-white race, higher co-morbidity, presence of acute organ failure, and cardiac arrest, predicted higher in-hospital mortality. In conclusion, cardiac arrhythmias in AMI-CS are a marker of higher illness severity and are associated with greater resource utilization.

Abstract
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common in acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS) requiring percutaneous ventricular assist device (pVAD-Impella®) support during percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). We evaluated the effects of a coexistent diagnosis of AF on clinical outcomes in patients with AMI-CS undergoing PCI with pVAD support. Methods The National Inpatient Sample (2008-2014) was queried to identify patients with AMICS requiring PCI with pVAD support and had a concomitant diagnosis of AF. Propensity-matched cohorts (AF+ vs AF-) were compared for in-hospital outcomes. Results A total of 840 patients with AMICS requiring PCI with pVAD support (420 AF+ vs 420 AF-) were identified in the matched cohort. Patients with AF were older (mean 69.7±12.0 vs 67.9±11.3 yrs, p=0.030). All-cause in-hospital mortality rates between the two groups were similar (40.5% vs 36.7%, p=0.245); however, higher postprocedural respiratory complications (9.5% vs 4.8%, p=0.007) were seen in AF+ group. In-hospital cardiac arrests were more frequent in the AF- group (32.0% vs 19.2%, p<0.001). We examined the length of stay (LOS), transfer to other facilities, and hospital charges as metrics of health care resource consumption and found that the AF+ cohort experienced fewer routine discharges (13.1% vs 30.2%), more frequent transfers to other facilities including skilled nursing facilities or intermediate care facilities (27.3% vs 17.8%; p<0.001), more frequently required the use of home health care (14.3% vs 7.1%; p<0.001). The mean LOS (11.9±10.1 vs 9.11±6.8, p<0.001) and hospital charges ($308,478 vs $277,982, p=0.008) were higher in the AF+ group. Conclusions In patients suffering AMICS requiring PCI and pVAD support, a coexistent diagnosis of AF was not associated with an increase in all-cause in-hospital mortality as compared to patients without AF. However, healthcare resource consumption as assessed by various metrics was consistently greater in the AF+ group.

Abstract
AIMS Patients suffering from cardiogenic shock (CS) have a high mortality and morbidity. The Impella percutaneous left-ventricular assist device (LVAD) decreases LV preload, increases cardiac output, and improves coronary blood flow. We aimed to review and meta-analyze available data comparing Impella versus intra-aortic pump (IABP) counterpulsation or medical treatment in CS due to acute myocardial infarction or post-cardiac arrest. METHODS AND RESULTS Study-level data were analyzed. Heterogeneity was assessed using the I2 statistic. Risk rates were calculated and obtained using a random-effects model (DerSimonian and Laird). Four studies were found suitable for the final analysis, including 588 patients. Primary endpoint was short-term mortality (in-hospital or 30-day mortality). In a meta-analysis of four studies comparing Impella versus control, Impella was not associated with improved short-term mortality (in-hospital or 30-day mortality; RR 0.84; 95% CI 0.57-1.24; p = 0.38; I2 55%). Stroke risk was not increased (RR 1.00; 95% CI 0.36-2.81; p = 1.00; I22 0%), but risk for major bleeding (RR 3.11 95% CI 1.50-6.44; p = 0.002; I2 0%) and peripheral ischemia complications (RR 2.58; 95% CI 1.24-5.34; p = 0.01; I2 0%) were increased in the Impella group. CONCLUSION In patients suffering from severe CS due to AMI, the use of Impella is not associated with improved short-time survival but with higher complications rates compared to IABP and medical treatment. Better patient selection avoiding Impella implantation in futile situations or in possible lower risk CS might be necessary to elucidate possible advantages of Impella in future studies.
