Types of Complications and Associated Factors in Patients Undergoing Permanent Cardiac Pacemaker Implantation: A Systematic Review. J Multidiscip Healthc 2025; 18:83-100. [PMID: 39822965 PMCID: PMC11735829 DOI: 10.2147/jmdh.s489600] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 11/19/2024] [Indexed: 01/19/2025] Open
Abstract
Background Permanent Pacemaker (PPM) implantation is essential in treating cardiac arrhythmias and conduction disorders, especially in patients with heart failure. Although PPM has been proven to improve quality of life and prolong life expectancy in patients with cardiac conduction disorders, post implantation complications still often occur. Purpose This study aimed to identify types of complications and associated predictors in patients undergoing PPM implantation. Methods This review used a systematic review design and follows the guidelines of the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews and the Preferred Reporting Item for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA). The database used was PubMed, CINAHL: Medline Ultimate, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and search engines: Google Scholar. Articles with observational designs and RCTs in English were included without limitation of publication year. Results This review analyzed 15 articles. The analysis showed that there are five categories of factors which influences the incidence of complications in patients after PPM implantation: demographic, pre-existing clinical, comorbid disease, procedural, operator experience, and activity factors. The complications that are most frequently reported are generator erosion, pacemaker infection, pneumothorax, atrial lead displacement, battery depletion, and even death after PPM implantation. Conclusion There are many incidents of complications and factors that influence complications in patients after PPM placement. The reported complications underscore the importance of careful patient selection and procedure execution to minimize risks. Healthcare providers should emphasize patients with risk factors to provide targeted monitoring and management. Integrating a multidisciplinary approach involving cardiologists, nephrologists, surgeons, and the nursing team is essential to optimizing patient care and improving clinical outcomes.

Selective placement of novel compression suture technique to reduce pacemaker implantation rate following surgical aortic valve replacement with rapid deployment INTUITY valve. J Formos Med Assoc 2025; 124:44-49. [PMID: 38480086 DOI: 10.1016/j.jfma.2024.03.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 03/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/06/2025] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The use of RDV in SAVR is associated with risk of conduction abnormality requiring PPM implantation, when compared to conventional bioprosthetic valves. We aimed to evaluate the outcome after selective placement of annular compression sutures during surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) using Intuity rapid deployment valve (RDV). METHODS This is a retrospective study of prospectively enrolled patients receiving SAVR using Intuity RDV. Selective placement of commissural compression suture was assessed for all patients based on their annular morphology. Outcomes including operative mortality, rate of pacemaker rate, paravalvular leak and change in trans-valvular pressure gradient were analyzed. RESULTS 56 consecutive patients underwent SAVR with the INTUITY RDV at our institution from January 2020 to November 2021. The Mean age of our cohort was 69.9 ± 10.6 years with a EuroSCORE II of 3.4 ± 2.4%. 28.6% (16/56) of patients had notable conduction abnormalities pre-operatively, which included atrial fibrillation and left/right bundle branch block. Compression sutures were selectively applied in 19/56 (33.9%) patients. Of which, 13 were bicuspid aortic valve. Post-operatively, we observed no conduction abnormality requiring PPM implantation. In addition, only 3 of the 56 (5.4%) had any degree of paravalvular leak on post-operative echocardiography (all ≤ mild). The mean reduction in trans-valvular gradient was 29.9 mmHg and the mean pressure gradient at 1 month and 1 year follow-up were 9.3 ± 3.6 mmHg and 10.2 ± 4.1 mmHg, respectively. CONCLUSION Selective placement of compression suture helps to avoid unnecessary oversizing, which may reduce the risk of paravalvular leak and post-operative PPM implantation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To highlight short- and long-term clinical outcomes of the Intuity TM rapid deployment prosthesis for surgical aortic valve replacement. METHODS We reviewed on PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, SciELO, LILACS, CCTR/CENTRAL, and Google Scholar for clinical trials, retrospective clinical studies, meta-analysis, and gray literature. RESULTS Fourty-five clinical studies with 12.714 patients were included in the analysis. Thirty-day mortality ranged from 3.8% for Intuity and 3.9% for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). The incidence of paravalvular leak (PVL) (Intuity 0% and TAVR 2.17%), permanent pacemaker implantation (Intuity 11.11% and TAVR 12.5%), stroke (Intuity 2.2% and TAVR 2.6%), myocardial infarction (MI) (Intuity 0% and TAVR 1%), were all higher in the TAVR group. Compared to other sutured bioprosthesis (SB), mortality ranged from 0% to 3.9% for Intuity and 0%-6.9% for SB. Long-term cardiac mortality ranged from 0.9% to 1.55% for Intuity and 1.4%-3.3% for the Perceval valve. The incidence of PVL (Intuity 0.24%-0.7% and Perceval 0%-1%), endocarditis (Intuity 0.2%-0.7% and Perceval 1.6%-6.6%), stroke (Intuity 0.36%-1.4% and Perceval 0%-0.8%), MI (Intuity 0.07%-0.26%), and SVD (Intuity 0.12%-0.7% and Perceval 0%) were comparable. Compared to standard full sternotomy (SFS), minimally invasive surgery (MINV) mortality ranged from 0% to 4.3% for MINV and 0%-2.1% for SFS. Hospital costs outcomes ranged from $37,187-$44,368 for the Intuity, $69,389 for TAVR, and $13,543 for SB. Intuity short-term mortality ranged between 0.9% and 12.4% while long-term mortality ranged between 2.6% and 20%. CONCLUSIONS This manuscript provides a 360° overview of the current rapid deployments, sutureless, and TAVR prosthesis.

The Aortic Annulus Stabilization Technique Prevents Paravalvular Leaks after Rapid Deployment Aortic Valve Implantation. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10245776. [PMID: 34945072 PMCID: PMC8703849 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10245776] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2021] [Revised: 12/03/2021] [Accepted: 12/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical aortic valve replacement with rapid deployment bioprosthesis guarantees good hemodynamic results but carries the risk of paravalvular leaks. To address this issue, an annulus stabilization technique has been recently developed. METHODS Clinical and hemodynamic parameters from patients treated for aortic valve replacement with the rapid deployment bioprosthesis and a concomitant annulus stabilization technique were prospectively collected and retrospectively analyzed. Echocardiographic data at discharge and at 1-year follow-up were collected and analysed. RESULTS A total of 57 patients (mean age 74.3 ± 6.1 years) with symptomatic aortic valve stenosis underwent aortic valve replacement with the rapid deployment bioprosthesis and concomitant annulus stabilization technique (mean valve size: 23.8 ± 1.9 mm). Combined procedures accounted for 56.1%. Hospital mortality was 1.8% and a new pacemaker for conduction abnormalities was implanted in 10 patients. The pre-discharge echocardiographic control showed absence of paravalvular leaks of any degree in all patients with mean valve gradient of 9.6 ± 4.0 mmHg. The 1-year echocardiographic control confirmed the good valve hemodynamic (mean gradient of 8.0 ± 2.8 mmHg) and absence of leaks. CONCLUSION In this preliminary clinical experience, the annulus stabilization technique prevents postoperative paravalvular leaks after rapid deployment aortic valve implantation, up to 1-year postoperatively. Studies on larger series are of paramount importance to confirm the long-term efficacy of this new surgical technique.
