LOOP RECORDER NELLA DIAGNOSI DI SINCOPI INSPIEGATE

SINCOPE: Perdita di coscienza per ridotto flusso sanguigno cerebrale

• INCIDENZA:

da 1.3 a 2.7 casi per 1000 persone l’anno; E’ più elevata nei più anziani (81 per 1000/anno nei >80 anni).

Fino al 40% della popolazione ha almeno una sincope nella sua vita1,2.

• DIAGNOSI:

Sulke N, et al. Europace (2016) 18, 912–918 Division of Cardiovascular Diseases - University Hospital of Pisa (Italy)

50% ILR patients achieved an ECG diagnosis within a mean of 95.2 days.

Only 17% patients without ILRs who achieved an ECG diagnosis (P , 0.001).

Sulke N, et al. Europace 2016

ILR patients were less likely to have a second post-randomization syncope (HR 0.38). No significant difference between

CONV and SC patients

Diagnosi di sincope non certa, ma solo sospettata

• Pazienti anziani che presentano cadute non accidentali inspiegabili

• Pazienti con gravi malattie depressive ed episodi inspiegabili di sincope

Ancora non ben spiegati nella popolazione epilettica: • Le sincopi frequenti • L’alta frequenza di morte improvvisa

E’ importante diagnosticare l’origine cardiaca di una sincope convulsiva per: • Evitare un trattamento anticonvulsivante non indicato • Valutare la presenza di aritmia ipocinetica nei pz con persistente sincope nonostante terapia Division of Cardiovascular Diseases - University Hospital of Pisa (Italy)

Oral anticoagulation (OAC) with vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) or non- VKA oral anticoagulants (NOACs) markedly reduces stroke and mortality in AF patients. 1. Hart RG, et al. Ann Intern Med 2007 2. Ruff CT, et al. Lancet 2014

Other interventions such as rhythm control and rate control improve AF-related symptoms and may preserve cardiac function, but have not demonstrated a reduction in long-term morbidity or mortality. 3. Kirchhof P, et al. Am Heart J 2013 4. Al-Khatib SM, et al. Ann Intern Med 2014

Detection of atrial fibrillation in stroke survivors

• AF detection is not uncommon in unselected stroke patients (6.2%), but is more likely in patients with cryptogenic stroke implanted with loop recorders or who have had ECG monitor for several weeks.

• Sequential stratified ECG monitoring detected AF: • in 24% (95% CI 17–31) of stroke survivors, • and in 11.5% (95% CI 8.9%–14.3%) in another meta-analysis

• with large variations depending on the timing, duration, and method of monitoring.

• Cryptogenic stroke is defined as • a stroke in which the cause could not be identified after extensive investigations. • Embolic stroke of undetermined source.

Data suggest that silent AF is identified in approximately 30% of cryptogenic stroke patients and has important therapeutic implications.

Oral anticoagulation likely should be prescribed when silent AF is detected Division of Cardiovascular Diseases - University Hospital of Pisa (Italy)

Temporal Proximity of Silent AF Episodes to Thromboembolic Event

Interestingly, the majority of patients (75%) did not show a temporal association with the detected atrial episode and their adverse event, with a mean bag period of 46.7+-71.9 days before the TE complication

Division of Cardiovascular Diseases - University Hospital of Pisa (Italy)

• Several studies have also found AF in patients in whom another competing cause for stroke has been identified clinically (e.g. hypertension or carotid artery stenosis).

• Hence, prolonged ECG monitoring seems reasonable in all survivors of an ischaemic stroke without an established diagnosis of AF.

I loop recorder sono dispositivi dotati di memoria retrospettiva: sono in grado cioè di registrare e cancellare continuamente la traccia elettrocardiografica.

Conclusions

• ILR technology has advanced • Devices are smaller, easy to implant

• Detection algorithms have improved

• Remote monitoring allows fast recognition of asymptomatic arrhythmias

• Use in evaluation of syncope is well established but still underused

• Role in detecting arrhythmias in situations where early recognition could lead to change in treatment and outcome

• Valuable tool in diagnosis of asymptomatic Afib in stroke patients
