AIM OF THE STUDY: Bradycardia may represent a serious emergency. The need for temporary and permanent pacing is unknown.
METHODS: We analysed a registry for the incidence, symptoms, presenting rhythm, underlying mechanism, management and outcome of patients presenting with compromising bradycardia to the emergency department of a university hospital retrospectively during a 10-year period.
RESULTS: We identified 277 patients, 173 male (62%), median age 68 (IQR 58-78), median ventricular rate 33 min(-1) (IQR 30-40). The leading symptoms were syncope [94 (33%)], dizziness [61 (22%)], collapse [46 (17%)], angina [46 (17%)] and dyspnoea/heart failure [30 (11%)]. The initial ECG showed high grade AV block [134 (48%)], sinus bradycardia/AV block [46 (17%)], sinuatrial arrest [42 (15%)], bradycardic atrial fibrillation [39 (14%)] and pacemaker-failure [16 (6%)]. The underlying mechanisms were primary disturbance of cardiac automaticity and/or conduction [135 (49%)], adverse drug effect [58 (21%)], acute myocardial infarction [40 (14%)], pacemaker failure [16 (6%)], intoxication [16 (6%)] and electrolyte disorder [12 patients (4%)]. In 107 (39%) patients bed rest resolved the symptoms. Intravenous drugs to increase ventricular rate were given to 170 (61%) patients, 54 (20%) required additional temporary transvenous/transcutaneous pacing. Two severely intoxicated patients could be stabilised only by cardiopulmonary bypass. A permanent pacemaker was implanted in 137 patients (50%). Mortality was 5% at 30 days.
CONCLUSION: In our cohort, about 20% of the patients presenting with compromising bradycardia required temporary emergency pacing for initial stabilisation, in 50% permanent pacing had to be established.
