BACKGROUND: Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD) is an X-linked inherited lysosomal disease caused by a defect in the gene encoding lysosomal enzyme α-galactosidase A (GLA). Atrio-ventricular (AV) nodal conduction defects and sinus node dysfunction are common complications of the disease. It is not fully elucidated how frequently AFD is responsible for acquired AV block or sinus node dysfunction and if some AFD patients could manifest primarily with spontaneous bradycardia in general population. The purpose of study was to evaluate the prevalence of AFD in male patients with implanted permanent pacemaker (PM). METHODS: The prospective multicentric screening in consecutive male patients between 35 and 65 years with implanted PM for acquired third- or second- degree type 2 AV block or symptomatic second- degree type 1 AV block or sinus node dysfunction was performed. RESULTS: A total of 484 patients (mean age 54 ± 12 years at time of PM implantation) were enrolled to the screening in 12 local sites in Czech Republic. Out of all patients, negative result was found in 481 (99%) subjects. In 3 cases, a GLA variant was found, classified as benign: p.Asp313Tyr, p.D313Y). Pathogenic GLA variants (classical or non-classical form) or variants of unclear significance were not detected. CONCLUSION: The prevalence of pathogenic variants causing AFD in a general population sample with implanted permanent PM for AV conduction defects or sinus node dysfunction seems to be low. Our findings do not advocate a routine screening for AFD in all adult males with clinically significant bradycardia.

BACKGROUND: Cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation rates as well as the clinical and procedural characteristics and outcomes in patients with known active coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are unknown. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to gather information regarding CIED procedures during active COVID-19, performed with personal protective equipment, based on an international survey. METHODS: Fifty-three centers from 13 countries across 4 continents provided information on 166 patients with known active COVID-19 who underwent a CIED procedure. RESULTS: The CIED procedure rate in 133,655 hospitalized COVID-19 patients ranged from 0 to 16.2 per 1000 patients (P <.001). Most devices were implanted due to high-degree/complete atrioventricular block (112 [67.5%]) or sick sinus syndrome (31 [18.7%]). Of the 166 patients in the study survey, the 30-day complication rate was 13.9% and the 180-day mortality rate was 9.6%. One patient had a fatal outcome as a direct result of the procedure. Differences in patient and procedural characteristics and outcomes were found between Europe and North America. An older population (76.6 vs 66 years; P <.001) with a nonsignificant higher complication rate (16.5% vs 7.7%; P = .2) was observed in Europe vs North America, whereas higher rates of critically ill patients (33.3% vs 3.3%; P <.001) and mortality (26.9% vs 5%; P = .002) were observed in North America vs Europe. CONCLUSION: CIED procedure rates during known active COVID-19 disease varied greatly, from 0 to 16.2 per 1000 hospitalized COVID-19 patients worldwide. Patients with active COVID-19 infection who underwent CIED implantation had high complication and mortality rates. Operators should take these risks into consideration before proceeding with CIED implantation in active COVID-19 patients.
