Patients with HFpEF and sinus node dysfunction had lower pacemaker implantation rates and higher disease burden than those with sinus node dysfunction alone.
Are permanent pacemaker (PPM) implant rates and disease burden different in patients with HFpEF and SND compared to patients with SND only?
Patients with concurrent HFpEF and SND have a higher disease burden but receive permanent pacemakers at lower rates than those with SND alone, highlighting a need for optimized treatment pathways.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
PPM implant rates were lower, and overall disease burden was greater in HFpEF+SND patients compared to SND-only patients. Future work should focus on optimizing treatment pathways for patients with HFpEF and SND.
Habel et al. (Thu,) reported a other. Patients with HFpEF and sinus node dysfunction had lower pacemaker implantation rates and higher disease burden than those with sinus node dysfunction alone.
