Abstract

We aimed to investigate the effect of atrial pacing on left ventricular diastolic function and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels in patients with DDD pacemaker. Methods: Thirty patients with complete atrio-ventricular (AV) block and DDD pacemaker were included. All patients had normal left ventricular systolic function. Echocardiographic diastolic function parameters (transmitral and tissue Doppler velocities during early (E and E’) and late (A and A’) filling) and NT-pro-BNP levels were evaluated prospectively during atrial sensing and pacing periods. Echocardiographic data were compared with paired sample t test and NT-pro-BNP levels were compared with Wilcoxon test. Results: Echocardiographic E/A, E’/A’, E/E’ ratios were calculated as 0.72±0.34, 0.61±0.21 and 8.76±2.58 during atrial sensing period. Same parameters were found as 0.71±0.23, 0.64±0.16 and 8.93±3.16 respectively during atrial pacing period. Echocardiographic left ventricular diastolic function parameters were not significantly different during atrial pacing and atrial sensing periods. Median plasma NT-pro-BNP levels were measured as 142 pg/ml (min-max 47-563 pg/ml) and 147 pg/ml (min-max 33-1035 pg/ml) during atrial sensing and pacing periods respectively. These levels were not significantly different (p=0.86). Conclusion: The result of this study has shown that, atrial pacing has not any additional detrimental effect on left ventricular diastolic function parameters in paced patients with normal left ventricular systolic function.

Özet

Pacemaker’lı olgularda atriyumların elektriksel uyarımının normal sol ventrikül sistolik fonksiyonlu hastalarda sol ventrikül diyastolik fonksiyonu ve beyin natriüretik peptit (BNP) seviyeleri üzerine etkisinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Yöntemler: Atriyo-ventriküler (AV) tam blok nedeni ile DDD pacemaker takılmış sistolik fonksiyonu normal 30 hastada atriyal sensing ve atriyal pacing sırasında sol ventrikül diyastolik fonksiyonunda (erken (E) ve geç (A) doluş transmitral ve erken (E’) ve geç (A’) doluş doku Doppler akım hızları) olabilecek değişiklikler ekokardiyografik olarak ve NT-pro-BNP ölçümleri ile prospektif olarak araştırılmıştır. Bu amaçla hastalarda atriyal sensing ve atriyal pacing dönemlerinde elde edilen ekokardiyografik veriler eşleştirilmiş örneklem t testi ile NT-pro-BNP seviyeleri ise Wilcoxon testi ile karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Atriyal sensing döneminde ekokardiyografik E/A, E’/A’, E/E’ oranları sırası ile 0.72±0.34, 0.61±0.21 ve 8.76±2.58 şeklinde hesaplandı. Aynı parametreler atriyal pacing döneminde sıra ile 0.71±0.23, 0.64±0.16 ve 8.93±3.16 olarak saptandı. Atriyal sensing ve pacing dönemlerinde ekokardiyografik E/A, E’/A’ ve E/E’ ölçümleri arasında istatistik olarak anlamlı bir farklılık saptanmadı. Atriyal sensing döneminde 142 pg/ml (min-maks 47-563 pg/ml) olan mediyan NT-pro-BNP değeri atriyal pacing döneminde 147 pg/ml (min-maks 33-1035 pg/ml) saptandı. NT-pro-BNP seviyeleri bakımından atriyal sensing ve atriyal pacing dönemlerinde yapılan ölçümler arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık bulunmadı (p=0.86). Sonuç: Bu çalışma AV tam bloklu ve normal sol ventrikül sistolik fonksiyonlu olgularda sağ ventrikül pacing’i sırasında gözlenen diyastolik disfonksiyon paterni üzerinde atriyal pacing’in ilave bir kötüleşme yaratmadığını ekokardiyografik olarak ve NT-pro-BNP ölçümleri ile göstermiştir.
