Abstrakt: The conventional criteria for a defibrillation lead (DL) implantation don't take into account presence of scar or deep ischemia in the myocardium. This may impair a proper functioning of the DL. We sought to optimize the DL implantation placement using rest myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS), which allow detecting areas of myocardial hypoperfusion (MH). To study the influence of MH and scarring, detected by MPS, on the DL parameters in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). 69 patients (male-65, age 64.8 ± 7.7 years) with CAD and indications for ICD implantation were enrolled. Two days before ICD implantation all patients underwent MPS at rest. Then patients were divided in 2 groups. In the 1st group DL was implanted considering MPS results: to the septal position, if the most significant MH were detected in the apical segments, and to the apical position, if MH were in the septal segments. In the 2nd group DL was implanted using the conventional approach without considering MPS results. Clinical 12 months follow-up was performed with ICD interrogation. Patients of both groups were comparable by clinical and scintigraphic parameters. In the same time, in the 1st group pacing threshold was lower (p < 0.0001) and ventricle signal amplitude was higher (p < 0.0001) comparing with the 2nd group at all control points. The presence of MH detected by MPS in the area of the DL placement worsens its parameters. The results of MPS in patients with CAD can be useful for optimization of DL placement.
