Performance of a multisensor implantable defibrillator algorithm for heart failure monitoring related to co-morbidities.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

The HeartLogic algorithm combines multiple implantable defibrillator (ICD) sensor data and has proved to be a sensitive and timely predictor of impending heart failure (HF) decompensation in cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT-D) patients. We evaluated the performance of this algorithm in non-CRT ICD patients and in the presence of co-morbidities.

Methods and results

The HeartLogic feature was activated in 568 ICD patients (410 with CRT-D) from 26 centres. The median follow-up was 26 months [25th-75th percentile: 16-37]. During follow-up, 97 hospitalizations were reported (53 cardiovascular) and 55 patients died. We recorded 1200 HeartLogic alerts in 370 patients. Overall, the time IN the alert state was 13% of the total observation period. The rate of cardiovascular
