The influence of restoration of spontaneous circulation in temporary different pacing sites / 中华急诊医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the impact of different pacing sites in hemodynamic and cardiovascular events after restoration of spontaneous circulation.Methods A total of 76 patients with-in hospital cardiac arrest occurred from November 2010 to January 2014 were confirmed by electrionic device monitoring or electrocardiogram and they received cardiopulmonary resuscitation,and their ages were over 18 years.Patients with end-stage of various disease,malignancy and cardiac arrest due to incurable diseases or debility of physical conditions were excluded.The 76 patients were divided into two groups according to pacing site checked by X-ray fluoroscopy in emergency rescue unit:right ventriclular outflow trace pacing group [n =36,male 26 cases,female 10 cases,age (57.31 ± 16.65) years] and right ventricular apex pacing group [n =40,22 male cases and 18 female cases,age (60.43 ± 15.48) years].All patients' QRS duration were measured by ECG after pacemaker implantition and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),left ventricular short axis reduced rate (FS),heart rate (HR),cardiac index (CI) were tested by bedside echocardiography and non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring was used during the early to middle stage.All the hemodynamic variables and the cardiac events were observed after spontaneous circulation recovery.All the data were analyzed by SPSS version 13.0 statistical software.Results There were no significant differences in age,gender,the primary disease,the time from cardiac arrest to spontaneous circulation restoration and dosage of epinephrine (P ＞ 0.05).In comparison with right ventricular apex pacing group,LVEF,FS,HR,CI were higher in right ventriclular outflow trace pacing group [(0.46 ± 0.04)％ vs.(0.44 ±0.05)％,(0.34±0.05) vs.(0.32±0.04),(0.04±0.46) L/minvs.(3.47±0.46) L/min,(0.46±0.29) L/ (min · m2) vs.(2.46 ±0.26) L/ (min · m2),P ＜ 0.05] and right ventriclular outflow trace pacing group had shorter QRS duration than right ventriclular apex pacing group [(128.25 ± 6.06) ms vs.(151.93 ± 8.99) ms,P ＜ 0.05]; fewer atrial fibrilation event was detected in right ventriclular outflow trace pacing group after restoration of spontaneous circulation than that in right ventricular apex pacing group.But incidences of cardiac failure and thrombus were not different between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The right ventriclular outflow trace pacing resulted in better hemodynamic and fewer atrial fibrilation after restoration of spontaneous circulation.
