Crt Response

Background Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is rarely used in patients with congenital heart disease, and reported follow‐up is short. We sought to evaluate long‐term impact of CRT in a single‐center cohort of patients with congenital heart disease. Methods and Results Thirty‐two consecutive patients with structural congenital heart disease (N=30) or congenital atrioventricular block (N=2), aged median of 12.9 years at CRT with pacing capability device implantation, were followed up for a median of 8.7 years. CRT response was defined as an increase in systemic ventricular ejection fraction or fractional area of change by >10 units and improved or unchanged New York Heart Association class. Freedom from cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, or new transplant listing was 92.6% and 83.2% at 5 and 10 years, respectively. Freedom from CRT complications, leading to surgical system revision (elective generator replacement excluded) or therapy termination, was 82.7% and 72.2% at 5 and 10 years, respectively. The overall probability of an uneventful therapy continuation was 76.3% and 58.8% at 5 and 10 years, respectively. There was a significant increase in ejection fraction/fractional area of change ( P <0.001) mainly attributable to patients with systemic left ventricle ( P =0.002) and decrease in systemic ventricular end‐diastolic dimensions ( P <0.05) after CRT. New York Heart Association functional class improved from a median 2.0 to 1.25 ( P <0.001). Long‐term CRT response was present in 54.8% of patients at last follow‐up and was more frequent in systemic left ventricle ( P <0.001). Conclusions CRT in patients with congenital heart disease was associated with acceptable survival and long‐term response in ≈50% of patients. Probability of an uneventful CRT continuation was modest.

The Impact

Background We sought to assess the impact and predictors of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) infection and severity in a cohort of patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) at a large CHD center in New York City. Methods and Results We performed a retrospective review of all individuals with CHD followed at Columbia University Irving Medical Center who were diagnosed with COVID‐19 between March 1, 2020 and July 1, 2020. The primary end point was moderate/severe response to COVID‐19 infection defined as (1) death during COVID‐19 infection; or (2) need for hospitalization and/or respiratory support secondary to COVID‐19 infection. Among 53 COVID‐19‐positive patients with CHD, 10 (19%) were <18 years of age (median age 34 years of age). Thirty‐one (58%) had complex congenital anatomy including 10 (19%) with a Fontan repair. Eight (15%) had a genetic syndrome, 6 (11%) had pulmonary hypertension, and 9 (17%) were obese. Among adults, 18 (41%) were physiologic class C or D. For the entire cohort, 9 (17%) had a moderate/severe infection, including 3 deaths (6%). After correcting for multiple comparisons, the presence of a genetic syndrome (odds ratio [OR], 35.82; P =0.0002), and in adults, physiological Stage C or D (OR, 19.38; P =0.002) were significantly associated with moderate/severe infection. Conclusions At our CHD center, the number of symptomatic patients with COVID‐19 was relatively low. Patients with CHD with a genetic syndrome and adults at advanced physiological stage were at highest risk for moderate/severe infection.
