Abstract Background Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is a congenital heart disease that often under-diagnosed in youth. Atrial septal defect has a poor clinical manifestation at Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) condition. Cardiac autonomic dysfunction may occur in PAH due to over sympathetic activation. This condition in general population is associated with increase risk of sudden cardiac death. Despite the case, there are only limited studies which associated cardiac autonomic dysfunction and PAH in adult patient with uncorrected ASD. Purpose This study aims to compare cardiac autonomic dysfunction, using heart rate variability, in adult patient with uncorrected ASD between PAH and non-PAH group. Methods Adult (18+) patient with uncorrected ASD who listed in ASD registry in Indonesia, were selected in this analytical observational study. Patients in whom no other congenital defect and atrial fibrillation in electrocardiogram were eligible for inclusion. Diagnose of PAH was established when mean pulmonary arterial pressure value from right heart catheterization is ≥ 25 mmHg. Arrhythmias and heart rate variability, using Standard Deviation of Normal-Normal (SDNN), High Frequency (HF) and Low Frequency (LF) parameters, were collected from holter monitoring. These procedures were performed on the same day. Results We enrolled 55 adult patients with uncorrected ASD (mean age: 33.3 ± 10.3 years, 89.1% women), consist of 51 secundum ASD, 3 sinus venosus ASD and 1 primum and secundum ASD patient. They were divided into PAH group (28 patients) and non-PAH group (27 patients). Patients in PAH group had a higher incidence of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and ventricular extrasystole compare to those in non-PAH group (28.5% vs. 14.8% and 75% vs. 70%). All parameters of heart rate variability was significantly reduced in PAH group compare to non-PAH group (SDNN : mean difference 14.5 ± 2.98 ms, CI 95%, P < 0.001; HF : median difference 99.5 ms2, P < 0.001; LF : median difference 129.6 ms2, P < 0.001). Conclusion A marked reduction in cardiac autonomic function occur in adult uncorrected ASD patient with PAH compare to patient with non-PAH, that might be the result of decreasing baroreceptor and increasing chemoreceptor function in PAH.

BackgroundThe REACT DX registry evaluates standard therapies to episodes of long-lasting atrial tachyarrhythmias and assesses the quality of sensing and stability of the lead and the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) (BIOTRONIK Lumax VR-T DX and successors) over at least a 1-year follow-up period.ObjectiveTo study the association between the risk of de novo device-detected atrial fibrillation (AF), the autonomic perturbations before the onset of paroxysmal AF and a 7-days heart rate variability (7dHRV) 1 month after ICD implantation.MethodsThe registry consists of 234 patients implanted with an ICD, including 10 with de novo long-lasting atrial tachyarrhythmias with no prior history of AF. The patients were matched via the propensity-score methodology as well as for properties directly influencing the ECGs recorded using GE CardioMem CM 3000. Heart rate variability (HRV) analysis was performed using standard parameters from time- and frequency-domains, and from non-linear dynamics.ResultsNo linear HRV was associated with an increased risk of AF (p = n.s.). The only significant approach was derived from symbolic dynamics with the parameter “forbidden words” which distinguished both groups on all 7 days of measurements (p < 0.05), thereby quantifying the heart rate complexity (HRC) as drastically lower in the de novo AF group.ConclusionCardiac autonomic dysfunction denoted by low HRC may be associated with higher AF incidence. For patients with mild to moderate heart failure, standard HRV parameters are not appropriate to quantify cardiac autonomic perturbations before the onset of AF. Further studies are needed to determine the individual risk for AF that would enable interventions to restore autonomic balance in the general population.

Cardiac Autonomic Dysfunction

Nitric oxide (NO) plays a crucial role not only in regulation of blood pressure but also in maintenance of cardiac autonomic tone and its deficiency induced hypertension is accompanied by cardiac autonomic dysfunction. However, underlying mechanisms are not clearly defined. We hypothesized that sympathetic activation mediates hemodynamic and cardiac autonomic changes consequent to deficient NO synthesis. We used chemical sympathectomy by 6-hydroxydopamine to examine the influence of sympathetic innervation on baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) and heart rate variability (HRV) of chronic NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) treated adult Wistar rats. BRS was determined from heart rate responses to changes in systolic arterial pressure achieved by intravenous administration of phenylephrine and sodium nitroprusside. Time and frequency domain measures of HRV were calculated from 5-min electrocardiogram recordings. Chronic L-NAME administration (50 mg/kg per day for 7 days orally through gavage) in control rats produced significant elevation of blood pressure, tachycardia, attenuation of BRS for bradycardia and tachycardia reflex and fall in time as well as frequency domain parameters of HRV. Sympathectomy completely abolished the pressor as well as tachycardic effect of chronic L-NAME. In addition, BRS and HRV improved after removal of sympathetic influence in chronic L-NAME treated rats. These results support the concept that an exaggerated sympathetic activity is the principal mechanism of chronic L NAME hypertension and associated autonomic dysfunction.

Abstract Background and Purpose. Cardiac autonomic dysfunction is associated with risk of restenosis and cardiovascular mortality in patients after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). Analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) is an important, widely used method for assessing cardiac autonomic regulation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of exercise training on HRV in subjects after PTCA. Subjects and Methods. A total of 84 subjects who had undergone PTCA were recruited for this study. The subjects (age [mean±SD]=57.0±9.3 years) were randomly assigned to either an exercise group to undergo an 8-week outpatient exercise program or a control group to undergo usual care. Heart rate variability was measured for 5 minutes in the supine resting position at baseline and at the end of 8 weeks. Results. The parasympathetically modulated HRV of the subjects in the exercise group increased significantly compared with the HRV of subjects in the control group. The effects of training on HRV were independent of angioplasty type (balloon or stent) and were unrelated to whether the subjects had received previous PTCA. Discussion and Conclusion. Exercise training can increase parasympathetic modulation of cardiac function in people after they have undergone successful PTCA. Our results suggest that analysis of HRV can be extended to assess the effect of exercise training on cardiac autonomic dysfunction in people after coronary angioplasty.
