Impact of a poor functional capacity on the clinical outcomes in patients with a pacemaker implantation –Results from the Japanese Heart Rhythm Society Registry

Background Functional capacity (FC) correlates with mortality in various cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study was to examine whether cardiac pacemaker implantations improve the FC and affect the prognosis. Methods and Results We prospectively enrolled 621 de novo pacemaker recipients (age...

Zusammenfassung:Background Functional capacity (FC) correlates with mortality in various cardiovascular diseases. The aim of this study was to examine whether cardiac pacemaker implantations improve the FC and affect the prognosis. Methods and Results We prospectively enrolled 621 de novo pacemaker recipients (age 76 ± 9 years, 50.7% male). The FC was assessed by metabolic equivalents (METs) during the implantation and periodically thereafter. The patients were a priori classified into poor FC (
