| 6 | Ventricular Arrhythmia in the Fontan Circulation:Prevalence,Risk Factors and Clinical Implications显示文摘Objective:Sudden cardiac death(SCD)and malignant ventricular arrhythmia(VA)are increasingly recognized as important issues for people living with a Fontan circulation,but data are lacking.We sought to characterize the cohort who had sudden cardiac death,most likely related to VA and/or documented VA in the Australia and New Zealand Fontan Registry including risk factors and clinical outcomes.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was performed.Inclusion criteria were documented non-sustained ventricular tachycardia,sustained ventricular tachycardia,ventricular fibrillation,resuscitated cardiac arrest or SCD>30 days post-Fontan completion.Results:Of 1611 patients,20(1.2%)had VA;14(1.0%)had VA without SCD and 6(<1%)had SCD(6%of all deaths recorded in Registry;5 of those had documented VA at the time of arrest and 1 was presumed to be VA-associated).The median age at first VA was 20.5(14–32)years,10(50%)were females,and the median age at Fontan operation was 8(4–17)years.On univariable analysis,hypoplastic left heart syndrome(p=0.03)and older age Fontan operation(p<0.001)were associated with VA.Earlier Fontan era(p<0.003),atriopulmonary Fontan(p<0.001),pre-Fontan atrioventricular valve repair(p=0.013)pre-or post-Fontan atrial arrhythmia(p=0.010)were associated with SCD.Patients with VA had a 3 times higher risk of death or heart transplant(HR 3.27(1.19,8.98),p=0.02).Conclusions:A proportion of people living with a Fontan circulation have malignant VA.Routine VA screening in this cohort is essential.More data are needed to aid risk stratification. | Charis Tan Diana Zannino Carley Clendenning Sophie Offen Thomas LGentles Julian Ayer David Tanous Vishva Wijesekera Leeanne Grigg David Celermajer Mark McGuire Yves d’Udekem Rachael Cordina | 2023 | Congenital Heart Disease2023，18，5： | 0 |
