Mather, Philadelphia, PA Discussion Panel Karol Harshaw-‐Ellis, Durham, NC Gina G. Mentzer, Columbus, OH Jean M. Nappi, Charleston, SC Mitchell T. Saltzberg, Newark, DE William G. Stevenson, Boston, MA 10:30 AM Case 1:
75 y/o male with h/o ICM, CABG with gradual decline in activity over the past 6 months but the symptoms really started to limit his activities over one year ago. His renal, hepatic and lung function are at baseline and within normal age-‐appropriate limits. He has lost over 40lbs in the last two years and has a prealbumin of 13 and is cachectic in appearance. His wife (his primary support) has her own medical issues and his children live in a different state. His hemodynamics show an RA of 8, PA pressures of 40/20, a PCWP of 15, PA sat of 60% and a CI of 1.7. He has no interventional options nor does he have an ischemic burden. His physician has had to wean down his afterload reduction (including beta blocker) to lower doses over the past 6 months due to intolerance due to hypotension.
10:45 AM Case 2: 21 y/o AA F diagnosed at referring hospital with peripartum CM when experiencing dyspnea and hypotension shortly after emergency C-‐section. Echo noted severe global LV hypokinesis, LVEF 27%, dilated LV with moderate to severe MR. Responded quickly to diuretics (repeat echo 5 days later without significant change). Discharged on beta blocker, ACE-‐I, and wearable cardiac defibrillator. Labs unrevealing. Undergoing medication optimization (current: carvedilol 25mg bid, lisinopril 40 mg hs, eplerenone 12.5 mg qd, depot medroxyprogesterone acetate injections q3 months) with plan for repeat echo, and CPET. Self-‐ removed wearable defibrillator d/t contact dermatitis. Stable NHYA II.
11:00 AM Case 3: 40 y/o multiparous woman presents with cardiogenic shock and requires ecmo support. Etiology is unreversible (i.e not acute myocarditis). She is transitioned to a Thoratec HM II LVAD. She is evaluated for OHT and found to be a suitable candidate. Her PRAs are 99% with MFI’s >4000-‐7000 including A2.
11:15 AM Case 4: 74 yo M, NICM dx 2003. Hx: CRTD, PAF, VT, CKD, GIB/partial gastrectomy 1997, anemia (chronic iron infusions). LVEFs 20 -‐ 25%, LVEDD 7.3 -‐8.5 cm, severe MR. Stable many years, NYHA II through 2010 on full HF therapies. 2011 and again 2012 early DT LVAD evaluation considered for labile clinical state, yet RHC noted near normal filling pressures & borderline CI, peak VO2 18-‐19 ml/kg/min, so evaluations
2014 HFSA Annual Scientific Meeting, 9/14-‐17, Caesars Palace, Las Vegas, NV Page 19
deferred. 2012 SHFS survival 89% 1 yr, 56% 5 yrs. Late 2013 NYHA III, fall in VO2 to 12.1 ml/kg/min, RHC: RA 13, PA 54/23/37, PCW 27, CI 1.97 . Diuresed and screened for REVIVE-‐IT but marginally excluded for GFR. SHFS survival 64% 1 yr, 11% 5yrs. Without hospitalizations past 4 years but meticulously followed in HF clinic, home HF DMP. Some concerns over support systems, and pt willingness, delayed DT VAD evaluation until deterioration in April 2014 resulting in hospitalization, milrinone dependence, recurrence of AF with fall in CRT pacing. Completed LVAD eval and night prior to planned implant experienced GIB(EGD: erythematous and fraible mucosa in the gastric remnant s/p Billroth hemi-‐gastrectomy, no Mallory-‐Weiss tear). Discharged on warfarin, IV milrinone with tenuous clinical sate at home. After 4 weeks stable H&H underwent uncomplicated LVAD implant.
11:30 AM Case 5: 55y/o male with blood type O, BMI 32 presents with inotrope dependent end-‐stage CHF. The patient is evaluated and listed for OHT. His milrinone dose is 0.3mcg/kg/min. He is stable and well perfused on this dose. He is fully ambulatory and able to handle his CADD pump and is well-‐versed in handling his PICC line and inotropes. He has good family support.
11:45 AM Case 6: 66 y/o AA female with a NICM dx Feb 2012 w LVEF 25%. Hx morbid obesity, HTN, DM, COPD, OSA and hypoventilation syndrome (CPAP and 02 2L prn), anxiety/depression/binge eating, DJD and chronic back pain with limited mobility (walker, motorized wheelchair). On optimal HF therapies improved LVEF to normal Dec 2012. Remained NYHA IIIB. Jan 2014 on routine echo noted re-‐decline in LVEF to 35% without any change in clinical status or clear cause (no medication withdrawal, normal perfusion on nuclear stress). Subsequently underwent CRT-‐D for which HF team requested impedance technology. Over these 2 years her volume status fluctuated resulting in hospital admissions for both pulmonary edema, and for intravascular depletion, hypotension, AKF (precipitated by extreme variations in diet). Referred to nutritionist and psychiatrist.
