Abstract Purpose: To investigate the effects of atenolol in inflammatory mediator and oxidative stress in a myocardial injury by intestinal ischemia/reperfusion in rat model. Methods: Adult Wistar male rats were randomly (n=8), anesthetized and divided in: Sham: submitted to operation only; group SS+IR: intravenous saline infusion following superior mesenteric artery occlusion during 60 minutes (ischemia) and open for 120 minutes (reperfusion); group AT+IR: intravenous atenolol infusion (2 mg/kg) following superior mesenteric artery occlusion during 60 minutes (ischemia) and open for 120 minutes (reperfusion); and group AT+I+AT+R: intravenous atenolol infusion following superior mesenteric artery occlusion during 60 minutes (ischemia) and in the time 45 minutes other atenolol doses were administrated and the artery was open for 120 minutes (reperfusion), all animals were submitted to muscular relaxation for mechanical ventilation. In the end of experiment the animals were euthanized and the hearts tissue were morphology analyzed by histology and malondialdehyde by ELISA, and the plasma were analyzed for tumor necrosis factor-alpha by ELISA. Results: The group SS+IR demonstrated the higher malondialdehyde levels when compared with the atenolol treated-groups (p=0.001) in the heart tissue. The tumor necrosis factor-alpha level in plasma decrease in the treated groups when compared with SS+IR group (p=0.001). Histology analyses demonstrate pyknosis, edema, cellular vacuolization, presence of inflammatory infiltrate and band contraction in the heart tissue of the rats. Conclusion: Atenolol significantly reduce the degree of cardiac damage after intestinal ischemia-reperfusion.

Objetivo: conocer los resultados de la ablación por catéter de fibrilación auricular (FA) en Latinoamérica. Material y método: se analizaron los resultados (éxito agudo, complicaciones totales y complicaciones mayores) de los procedimientos de ablación de FA paroxística (FA-P), FA-NO paroxística (FA-NP) y FA total (FA-P + FA-NP) incluidos en el Primer Registro Latinoamericano de Ablación por Catéter dirigido y coordinado por la Sociedad Latinoamericana de Estimulación Cardíaca y Electrofisiología (SOLAECE), y su relación con las características de los centros. Las variables categóricas se expresaron como proporciones y se compararon utilizando la prueba de chi cuadrado. Se consideró diferencia estadísticamentemente significativa un valor de P < 0,05. Resultados: la FA fue el cuarto sustrato más frecuentemente abordado con 1.649 procedimientos (11%). De ellos, 1.161 fueron de FA-P (70,4%) y 488 de FA-NP (29,6%). El número de ablaciones de FA al año fue de 30 o menos en 46 centros (81%); 50 o más en siete centros (12%), y 100 o más en cinco centros (9%). El promedio por centro fue de 26. El éxito agudo de la ablación de FA total fue de 90%. No se observaron diferencias entre FA-P y FA-NP (88,9% versus 90,8%, P=NS). La tasa de complicaciones totales fue de 8,31%, y tampoco se observaron diferencias entre los dos sustratos (FA-P 8,4% versus FA-NP 8,2%, P=NS). Las complicaciones mayores fueron de 4,12%. El resultado de la ablación (éxito agudo y complicaciones) se relacionó principalmente con el volumen de procedimientos de los centros. Conclusiones: los resultados de la ablación de FA en Latinoamérica son similares a los reportados en el resto del mundo. La experiencia del centro se relacionó directamente con los resultados, en particular con las complicaciones. Aquellos centros con tasas elevadas de complicaciones mayores deberían reanalizar sus programas de ablación de FA a fin de mejorar la seguridad de este tratamiento.

Summary Objective: to evaluate the results of catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) in Latin America. Material and methods: the results (acute success, total complications and major complications) of ablation procedures of paroxysmal-AF (AF-P), Non-paroxysmal (AF-NP), and total FA (AF-P + AF-NP) included in the First Latin American Catheter Ablation Registry coordinated by SOLAECE were analyzed and the relationship of these results with the characteristics of the centers were established. Categorical variables were expressed as proportions and compared using the chi² test. A P value of <0,05 was considered statistically significant. Results: AF was the fourth most frequently substrate treated with 1,649 procedures (11%). Of these, 1,161 were AF-P (70.4%) and 488 AF-NP (29.6%). The number of AF ablations per year was 30 or less in 46 centers (81%), 50 or more in 7 (12%) and 100 or more in five (9%). The per center procedures average was 26. The acute ablation success of total AF was 90%. No difference between acute ablation success of AF-P and AF-NP (88.9% vs 90.8%, P=NS) was observed. The total complications rate was 8.31%, and no difference between the two substrates was observed (AF-P 8.4% vs AF-NP 8.2%, P =NS). Major complications rate was 4.12%. The result of ablation (acute success and complications) was related mainly to the number of procedures performed by the center. Conclusions: the results of AF ablation in Latin America do not differ greatly from those observed in other places around the world. Features related to the characteristics of the centers, especially its experience, were directly related to the results, particularly complications. Those centers with high rates of major complications should re-examine its AF ablation programs to improve the safety of this treatment

RESUMO OBJETIVO: Este estudo foi realizado para obtenção do título de Mestre em Medicina, Novembro/2012-Julho/2013. A melhoria do débito cardíaco após a administração de fluidos é conhecida como a capacidade de resposta do fluido. Um parâmetro confiável para sua avaliação é a variação da pressão de pulso, cuja utilidade na previsão da capacidade de resposta volêmica em pacientes sob ventilação mecânica é reconhecida. MÉTODO: A variação de pressão de pulso foi analisada em 10 suínos machos, anestesiados em quatro diferentes estágios: I) normovolemia e respiração espontânea; II) hipovolemia e respiração espontânea; III) hipovolemia sob ventilação mecânica; e IV) após a reposição volêmica, sob ventilação mecânica. O débito cardíaco, a pressão de oclusão da artéria pulmonar, a variação da pressão sistólica, a pressão arterial média e frequência cardíaca foram medidos em todas as fases; a contagem de hemácias foi determinada nas fases I, II e IV. RESULTADOS: Os valores de variação de pressão de pulso durante a hipovolemia com respiração espontânea (estágio II) foram significativamente maiores do que em qualquer outra fase Após a instituição da ventilação mecânica, os valores de variação de pressão de pulso voltaram ao valor inicial, sem a administração de fluidos. Os valores mais baixos foram obtidos após a reposição. CONCLUSÃO: Os valores de variação da pressão de pulso são maiores durante a respiração espontânea do que durante a ventilação mecânica. Assim, esse parâmetro pode ser útil para a avaliação do volume de fluido sob estas condições. Os valores da linha de base devem ser tomados como ponto de partida contra o qual as medições seriadas devem ser comparadas após a instituição da terapêutica específica.

OBJECTIVE: This study was performed to obtain the title of Master in Medicine, Nov/2012-Jul/2013. Improvement in cardiac output after fluid administration is known as fluid responsiveness. A reliable parameter for its evaluation is pulse pressure variation: it has established its utility in predicting volume responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients. METHOD: Pulse pressure variation was analyzed in 10 anesthetized male pigs at four different stages: I) normovolemia and spontaneous breathing; II) hypovolemia and spontaneous breathing; III) hypovolemia under mechanical ventilation; and IV) after volume replacement, under mechanical ventilation. Cardiac output, pulmonary artery occlusion pressure, systolic pressure variation, mean arterial pressure, and heart rate were measured at all stages; red blood cell count was determined at stages I, II, and IV. RESULTS: Mean pulse pressure variation values during hypovolemia with spontaneous breathing (stage II) were significantly higher than at any other stage. After institution of mechanical ventilation, pulse pressure variation values returned to baseline without fluid administration. The lowest values were achieved after volume replacement. CONCLUSION: Pulse pressure variation values are higher during spontaneous breathing than during mechanical ventilation. Thus, it may be useful for assessment of fluid volume under these conditions, with baseline values as a starting point to which serial measurements should be compared after institution of specific therapy.

Objetivo Correlacionar sintomas arrítmicos com a presença de arritmias significativas por meio do monitor de eventos externo (web-loop). Métodos Entre janeiro e dezembro de 2011, o web-loop foi instalado em 112 pacientes (46% mulheres, 52±21 anos). Sintomas específicos foram definidos como palpitação, pré-síncope e síncope, presentes durante a monitorização. Arritmia significativa foi definida como taquicardia paroxística supraventricular, flutter e fibrilação atrial, taquicardia ventricular, pausas superiores a 2 segundos ou bloqueio atrioventricular avançado. A associação entre presença de sintomas e arritmias significativas foi avaliada. Resultados O monitor de eventos registrou sintomas específicos em 74 (66%) pacientes, entretanto a associação entre sintomas específicos e arritmia significativa foi observada em apenas 14 (19%) deles. Em 11 pacientes (9,8%), foi detectada arritmia significativa na ausência de sintomas. Não houve associação entre a presença de sintomas e a detecção de arritmia significativa (OR=0,57, IC95%: 0,21-1,57; p=0,23). Conclusão Em pacientes monitorizados pelo web-loop, não houve associação entre a presença de sintomas específicos e a detecção de arritmias significativas. O monitor de eventos pode ter importância na elucidação de sintomas de palpitações e síncope dos pacientes.

Objective To correlate arrhythmic symptoms with the presence of significant arrhythmias through the external event monitoring (web-loop). Methods Between January and December 2011, the web-loop was connected to 112 patients (46% of them were women, mean age 52±21 years old). Specific arrhythmic symptoms were defined as palpitations, pre-syncope and syncope observed during the monitoring. Supraventricular tachycardia, atrial flutter or fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, pauses greater than 2 seconds or advanced atrioventricular block were classified as significant arrhythmia. The association between symptoms and significant arrhythmias were analyzed. Results The web-loop recorded arrhythmic symptoms in 74 (66%) patients. Of these, in only 14 (19%) patients the association between symptoms and significant cardiac arrhythmia was detected. Moreover, significant arrhythmia was found in 11 (9.8%) asymptomatic patients. There was no association between presence of major symptoms and significant cardiac arrhythmia (OR=0.57, CI95%: 0.21-1.57; p=0.23). Conclusion We found no association between major symptoms and significant cardiac arrhythmia in patients submitted to event recorder monitoring. Event loop recorder was useful to elucidate cases of palpitations and syncope in symptomatic patients.

FUNDAMENTO: O sistema de mapeamento eletro anatômico Ensite Navx é muito usado na ablação por radiofrequência (RF) da fibrilação atrial, ajudando na confecção de lesões lineares. Contudo, a correspondência da linha virtual criada pelo Ensite com a lesão patológica ainda não foi avaliada. OBJETIVO: Avaliar a continuidade da linha virtual criada pelo Ensite em modelo suíno. MÉTODOS: Realizamos ablação linear por RF (cateter de 8 mm e irrigado) em ambos os átrios de 14 suínos (35 kg) guiada pelo EnSite. Os animais foram sacrificados 14 dias pós-ablação para análise macroscópica e histológica. RESULTADOS: Foram confeccionadas 23 lesões lineares em átrio direito e 21 em átrio esquerdo dos 14 animais. A potência, temperatura e impedância médias das aplicações foram de 56 W, 54 ºC e 231 Ω para o cateter de 8mm, e de 39 W, 37 ºC e 194 Ω para o cateter irrigado. Todas (100%) as linhas foram identificadas nas faces epicárdica e endocárdica, denotando transmuralidade. À macroscopia, as lesões eram extensas e pálidas, com 3,61 cm de comprimento e 0,71 cm de profundidade e contínuas. A transmuralidade das lesões foi confirmada pela microscopia. Houve correspondência na localização das linhas do mapa virtual com as da peça anatômica em 21 das 23 (91,3%) das linhas do átrio direito e 19/21 (90,4%) do átrio esquerdo. CONCLUSÃO: Nesse modelo, as linhas criadas no mapa virtual pelo sistema EnSiteNavX se correlacionam a lesões lineares transmurais contínuas na peça anatômica, sugerindo que esse método é adequado para a ablação linear da fibrilação atrial.

BACKGROUND: EnSiteNavx electroanatomic mapping system is widely used in radiofrequency (RF) atrial fibrillation ablation, helping the creation of linear lesions. However, the correspondence of the virtual line created by EnSite with the pathological lesion has not yet been evaluated. OBJECTIVE: to assess the continuousness of Ensite-guided virtual lines in a swine model. METHODS: we performed RF ablation linear lesions (8mm and irrigated catheters tips) in both atria of 14 pigs (35Kg) guided by the EnSite. The animals were sacrificed 14 days post-ablation for macroscopic and histological analysis. RESULTS: a total of 23 lines in the right atrium and 21 lines in the left atrium were created in 14 animals. The medium power, impedance and temperature applications were 56 W, 54 ºC and 231 Ω for the 8mm tip, and 39W, 37ºC, 194 Ω for the irrigated tip catheter, respectively. All (100%) lines were identified on the epicardial and endocardial surfaces, denoting transmurality. At macroscopic examination, lesions were extensive and pale, continuous, with 3.61 cm long and 0.71 cm deep. The transmurality of the lesions was confirmed by microscopy. There was a correlation in the location of the lines at the virtual map and the anatomical lesions in 21 of 23 (91.3%) of the right atrium and 19/21 (90.4%) of the left atrium. CONCLUSION: In this model, the lines created in the virtual map by EnSiteNavX system correspond to continuous transmural linear lesions in anatomical specimen, suggesting that this method is suitable for linear ablation of atrial fibrillation.

FUNDAMENTO: Os corticosteroides limitam o crescimento tardio das lesões por radiofrequência (RF) no músculo da coxa de ratos filhotes, mas seus efeitos em ratos púberes e adultos são desconhecidos. OBJETIVO: Avaliar os efeitos dos corticoesteroides na cicatrização das lesões por RF no músculo da coxa de ratos em diferentes faixas etárias. MÉTODOS: Realizou-se ablação no músculo da coxa de 30 ratos (1 lesão por animal): infantis (30 dias de idade, peso 73 g, n = 10), púberes (60 dias de idade, peso 230 g, n = 10) e 10 adultos (90 dias de idade, 310 g, n = 10), subdivididos em controles e tratados, que receberam Hidrocortisona (10 mg/kg IM pós-RF) e Betametasona (3,5 mg/kg IM, duas vezes por semana, por 29 dias). Os ratos foram sacrificados 60 dias após a ablação para análise histopatológica e planimétrica com software específico (ImageJ®). RESULTADOS: Nos infantis, púberes e adultos o ganho de peso no seguimento não diferiu entre controles e tratados. Nos controles, as lesões dos infantis e púberes eram maiores (p = 0,01) que as dos adultos. O tratamento reduziu o tamanho da lesão nos infantis (5,58+0,61 mm² vs 4,02+0,23 mm²; p < 0,01) e nos púberes (5,20+0,47 mm² vs 4,16+0,48 mm²; p < 0,01), mas não nos adultos (4,44+0,50 mm² vs 4,79+0,53 mm², p = NS). Tratados Infantil e Púbere apresentaram menor deposição de colágeno e menos traves fibróticas invadindo o tecido saudável a partir da área de fibrose central, e compondo lesão de dimensões notadamente mais reduzidas que seus controles. Não houve diferenças nos grupos adultos. CONCLUSÃO: Os corticoesteroides parecem reduzir o crescimento tardio da lesão, além de atenuar a proliferação fibrótica nos ratos infantis e púberes.

BACKGROUND: The corticosteroids limit the late growth of the lesions by radiofrequency (RF) on the rats' infants' thighs, but the effects on the pubescent and adult rats are unknown. OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the effects of the corticosteroids in the healing of the lesions by RF on the rats' thighs muscles in different age groups. METHODS: Ablation was performed on the thigh muscle of 30 rats (1 lesion per animal): infants (30 days old, weight 73 g, n = 10), pubescents (60 days old, weight 230 g, n = 10) and 10 adults (90 days old, 310 g, n = 10), subdivided in control and treated groups, that received Hydrocortisone (10 mg/kg IM post-RF) and Betametasone (3.5 mg/kg IM, twice a week, for 29 days). The rats were sacrificed 60 days after the ablation for hystopathological and planimetric analysis with specified software (ImageJ®). RESULTS: In the infant, pubescent and adult groups, the weight gain in the follow up did not differ between the control and the treated ones. In the control group, the lesions of the infants and pubescents were superior (p = 0.01) to the adults'. The treatment reduced the size of the lesion in the infants (5.58+0.61 mm² vs 4.02+0.23 mm²; p < 0.01) and pubescents (5.20+0.47 mm² vs 4.16+0.48 mm²; p < 0.01), but not in the adults (4.44+0.50 mm² vs 4.79+0.53 mm², p = NS). Infant and pubescent treated groups presented lower collagen deposition and less fibrotic bands invading the healthy tissue from the central fibrosis area, and forming lesions with remarkably more reduced dimensions than their controls. There were no differences in the adult groups. CONCLUSION: The corticosteroids seem to reduce the late growth of lesion, in addition to attenuate the fibrotic proliferation in the infant and pubescent rats.

Abstract: Pt En | Text: Pt En | PDF: Pt | PDF: En

FUNDAMENTO: Buscando delinear o perfil da ablação curativa de fibrilação atrial (FA) no Brasil, a Sociedade Brasileira de Arritmias Cardíacas (SOBRAC) idealizou o Registro Brasileiro de Ablação da FA. OBJETIVO: Descrever os resultados desse registro. MÉTODOS: Foi enviado um formulário aos sócios da SOBRAC, inquirindo sobre os dados de pacientes submetidos a ablação de FA entre setembro de 2005 e novembro de 2006. RESULTADOS: No total, 29 grupos, de 13 Estados, responderam ao formulário. Desses, 22 (76%) realizaram ablações de FA. Entre 1998 e 2001, 7 grupos (32%) iniciaram ablações de FA e entre 2002 e 2006, 15 grupos (68%). De 1998 a 2006, 2.374 pacientes foram submetidos a ablação, sendo 755 (32%) no período do registro. A maioria (70%) era do sexo masculino e 89% apresentavam FA paroxística ou persistente. Métodos auxiliares de imagem (ecocardiografia intracardíaca e mapeamento eletroanatômico) foram utilizados por 9 grupos (41%). Durante seguimento médio de cinco meses, o sucesso total foi de 82% e o sucesso sem uso de antiarrítmicos foi de 57%. Contudo, 35% dos pacientes necessitaram de dois ou mais procedimentos. Houve 111 complicações (14,7%) e 2 óbitos (0,26%). CONCLUSÃO: A ablação curativa de FA vem crescendo significativamente em nosso País, com taxas de sucesso comparáveis às internacionais, mas comumente há necessidade de mais de um procedimento. Apesar dos resultados promissores, a ablação de FA ainda acarreta morbidade significativa.

BACKGROUND: Aiming to define the profile of curative atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation in Brazil, the Brazilian Cardiac Arrhythmia Society [Sociedade Brasileira de Arritmias Cardíacas] (SOBRAC) created the Brazilian Registry of AF Ablation [Registro Brasileiro de Ablação da FA]. OBJECTIVE: To describe the results of this registry. METHODS: A questionnaire was sent to SOBRAC members asking about data on patients submitted to AF ablation between September 2005 and November, 2006. RESULTS: A total of 29 groups from 13 states completed the forms. Of these, 22 (76%) had performed AF ablations. Between 1998 and 2001, 7 groups (32%) initiated AF ablations and between 2002 and 2006, 15 groups began to perform them (68%). From 1998 to 2006, 2,374 patients were submitted to ablation, 755 (32%) of them during the registry period. Most (70%) were males and 89% presented with paroxysmal or persistent AF. Ancillary imaging methods (intracardiac echocardiography and electroanatomic mapping) were used by 9 groups (41%). During an average five-month follow-up period, total success was 82% and success without use of antiarrhythmic agents was 57%. Nevertheless, 35% of the patients required two or more procedures. There were 111 complications (14.7%) and 2 deaths (0.26%). CONCLUSION: Curative AF ablation has been increasing significantly in our country, with success rates comparable to international indexes, but often more than one procedure is necessary. Despite promising results, AF ablation still results in significant morbidity. Supplementary imaging methods have been used more and more in an effort to increase efficacy and safety of the procedure. These findings should be considered by public and private funding agencies.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

OBJECTIVE: To characterize the cardiac electrophysiologic effects of cocaine. METHODS: In 8 dogs (9-13 kg), electrophysiologic parameters and programmed stimulation were undertaken using transvenous catheters at baseline, and after cocaine intravenous infusion (12 mg/kg bolus followed by 0.22 mg/kg/min for 25 minutes). RESULTS: Cocaine plasma levels (n=5) rose to 6.73± 0.56 mg/mL. Cocaine did not affect sinus cycle length and arterial pressure. Cocaine prolonged P wave duration (54±6 vs 73±4 ms, P<0.001), PR interval (115±17 vs 164±15 ms, P<0.001), QRS duration (62±10 vs 88±14 ms, P<0.001), and QTc interval (344±28 vs 403±62 ms, P=0.03) but not JT interval (193±35 vs 226±53 ms, NS). Cocaine prolonged PA (9±6 vs 23±8 ms, P<0.001), AH (73±16 vs 92±15 ms; P=0.03), and HV (35±5 vs 45±3ms; P<0.001) intervals and Wenckebach point (247±26 vs 280±28 ms, P=0.04). An increase occurred in atrial (138±8 vs 184± 20 ms; P<0.001) and ventricular (160±15 vs 187±25 ms; P=0.03) refractoriness at a cycle length of 300 ms. Atrial arrhythmias were not induced in any dog. Ventricular fibrillation (VF) was induced in 2/8 dogs at baseline and 4/8 dogs after cocaine. CONCLUSION: High doses of cocaine exert significant class I effects and seem to enhance inducibility of VF but not of atrial arrhythmias.

Abstract: En | Text: En | PDF: En

OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of syncope during sustained ventricular tachycardia on total and cardiac mortality in patients with chronic chagasic heart disease. METHODS: We assessed 78 patients with sustained ventricular tachycardia and chronic Chagas' heart disease. The mean age was 53±10 years, 45 were males, and the mean ejection fraction was 49.6±13%. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to the presence (GI=45) or absence (GII=33) of syncope during sustained ventricular tachycardia. RESULTS: After a mean follow-up of 49 months, total mortality was 35% (28 deaths), 22 deaths having a cardiac cause (78.6%). No difference was observed in total (33.3% x 39.4%) and cardiac (26.7% x 30.3%) mortality, or in nonfatal sustained ventricular tachycardia between GI and GII patients (57.6% x 54.4%, respectively). However, the presence of syncope during recurrences was significantly greater in those patients who had had the symptom from the beginning (65.4% x 18.1%, p<0.01). CONCLUSION: Syncope during the presentation of sustained ventricular tachycardia is not associated with an increase in total or cardiac mortality in patients with chronic Chagas' heart disease. However, syncope during the recurrence ventricular tachycardia is greater in patients experiencing syncope in the first episode, of sustained ventricular tachycardia.
