    Title translation Legal aspects of driving and cardiovascular diseases : Guidelines of German Cardiac Society and the German government in comparison.
    Abstract Background: The general regulations for an active participation in the road traffic in the Federal Republic of Germany are laid down in the Driving License Ordinance ("Fahrerlaubnisverordnung" ) (including appendices). Cardiovascular diseases with a need for precautionary measures and the circumstances according to which the driving fitness is to be determined are reviewed in appendix 4 of the ordinance. The guidelines of the Federal Highway Research Institute ("Bundesanstalt für Straßenwesen") must also be considered when assessing the fitness to drive.
    Objectives: Presentation of the current legal recommendations in the assessment of the driving fitness in the respect to cardiovascular diseases.
    Materials and methods: The current official regulations and the recommendations on the fitness to drive in the case of cardiovascular diseases were assessed. In addition, the pocket guidelines of the German Society for Cardiology (DGK) on the subject were reviewed.
    Results: As the type of vehicle and time at the wheel influence the probability and the extent of damage in the case of a traffic accident, the official requirements for driving aptitude distinguish between private (group 1) and professional drivers (group 2). The official recommendations for assessing fitness to drive in the case of cardiac arrhythmias, device therapy, coronary heart disease, cardiac insufficiency, valve diseases and syncope are presented.
    Conclusion: Driving fitness plays an important role in the cardiological patient collective and should be determined in accordance with the official recommendations. For everyday clinical practice, the DGK recommendations for fitness to drive are presented in a clearer and more practice-relevant manner.

    Abstract (1) Background: Early reintervention increases the risk of infection of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs). Some operators therefore delay lead repositioning in the case of dislocation by weeks; however, there is no evidence to support this practice. The aim of our study was to evaluate the impact of the timing of reoperation on infection risk. (2) Methods: The data from consecutive patients undergoing lead repositioning in two European referral centers were retrospectively analyzed. The odds ratio (OR) of CIED infection in the first year was compared among patients undergoing early (≤1 week) vs. delayed (>1 week to 1 year) reoperation. (3) Results: Out of 249 patients requiring CIED reintervention, 85 patients (34%) underwent an early (median 2 days) and 164 (66%) underwent a delayed lead revision (median 53 days). A total of nine (3.6%) wound/device infections were identified. The risk of infection was numerically lower in the early (1.2%) vs. delayed (4.9%) intervention group yielding no statistically significant difference, even after adjustment for typical risk factors for CIED infection (adjusted OR = 0.264, 95% CI 0.032-2.179,

    Abstract Sudden cardiac death (SCD) remains a major public health burden despite enormous advances in post-resuscitation care, management of structural heart diseases, and antiarrhythmic treatment modalities. Primary and secondary prevention of sudden cardiac death require understanding of the underlying substrate causing ventricular arrhythmias and its modification by pharmacological (i.e. heart failure therapy) or interventional (catheter ablation) methods. Antiarrhythmic drug therapy has experienced ups and downs during the last 30years balancing high antiarrhythmic potential, toxic side effects and pro-arrhythmic potency. Therefore, the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) remains irreplaceable in primary and secondary prevention of SCD. Hybrid therapy combing antiarrhythmic drugs (predominantly amiodarone) with ICD therapy represents an often-used treatment option. This short review provides an overview of current pharmacological therapy aiming to prevent SCD.

    Abstract The pathophysiology of Takotsubo Syndrome (TTS) is not completely understood and the trigger of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in TTS is not clear either. We therefore sought to find an association between TTS and primary electrical diseases. A total of 148 TTS patients were analyzed between 2003 and 2017 in a bi-centric manner. Additionally, a literature review was performed. The patients were included in an ongoing retrospective cohort database. The coexistence of TTS and primary electrical diseases was confirmed in five cases as the following: catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT, 18-year-old female) (

    Abstract Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) may improve not only impaired left ventricular contractility but can also induce reverse remodeling of native conduction system. Measurement of intrinsic QRS complex width during follow-up is the simplest method to assess reverse electrical remodeling (RER). We aimed to provide a literature review and meta-analysis on incidence and impact of RER and its association with mechanical remodeling. A systematic review and random-effect meta-analysis of studies reporting data on RER was performed. A total of 16 studies were included in this meta-analysis with 930 patients undergoing CRT (mean age 64.0 years, 64.1% males). The weighted mean incidence of RER was 42%. Reverse mechanical remodeling assessed by echocardiography was more frequently observed in patients with RER compared to patients without RER (75.7% vs. 46.6%; odds ratio [OR] 3.7, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.24-6.09, p < 0.01). Mechanical responders had a mean iQRS shortening of 7.7 ms, while mechanical non-responders experienced a mean widening of iQRS by 5.2 ms (p < 0.01). Clinical improvement was more frequent in patients with RER vs. patients without RER (82.9% vs. 49.0%; OR 5.26; 95% CI 2.92-9.48; p < 0.01). No significant difference in all-cause mortality between patients with and without RER was found. Mean difference between baseline intrinsic QRS and post-implantation paced QRS was significant in patients with later RER (21.2 ms, 95% CI 9.4-32.9, p < 0.01), but not in patients without RER (6.6 ms, 95% CI -2.2-15.4, p = 0.14). Gender, initial left bundle block morphology and heart failure etiology were found not to be predictive for RER. Our meta-analysis demonstrates that shortening of iQRS duration is a common finding during follow-up of patients undergoing CRT and is associated with mechanical reverse remodeling and clinical improvement.

    Abstract Background: The subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) has been designed to overcome lead-related complications and device endocarditis. Lacking the ability for pacing or resynchronization therapy its usage is limited to selected patients at risk for sudden cardiac death (SCD).
    Objective: The aim of this single-center study was to assess clinical outcomes of S-ICD and single-chamber transvenous (TV)-ICD in an all-comers population.
    Methods: The study cohort comprised a total of 119 ICD patients who underwent either S-ICD (
    Results: The median age of the study population was 66.0 years, 22.7% of the patients were female. The underlying heart disease was ischemic cardiomyopathy (61.4%) with a median LVEF of 30%. Only 52.9% had received an ICD for primary prevention, most of the patients (67.3%) had advanced heart failure (NYHA class II-III) and 16.8% were in atrial fibrillation. CCI was 5 points in TV-ICD patients vs. 4 points for patients with S-ICD (
    Conclusion: Clinical outcomes of the S-ICD and TV-ICD revealed no differences in the composite endpoint including survival, freedom of hospitalization and device-associated events, even after careful adjustment for potential confounders. Moreover, the CCI was evaluated in a S-ICD cohort demonstrating higher survival rates than predicted by the CCI in young, polymorbid (S-)ICD patients.
