Prior studies suggest differences in chronotropy on cardiopulmonary exercise testing outcomes depending on indication for heart transplantation. We aimed to determine whether the number of pretransplant sternotomies is associated with differences in heart rate response during exercise testing.MethodsA retrospective analysis of our institutional pediatric heart transplant data between 2004 and 2022 was performed. Patients were categorized by indication for transplantation into a cardiomyopathy (CM) group if they had a congenital or acquired cardiomyopathy or a congenital heart disease (CHD) group including all other forms of congenital cardiac anatomic abnormalities.ResultsCHD patients (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 40) differed from CM patients (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 53) by mean number of sternotomies prior to transplant (2.4 ± 1.8 vs. 0.5 ± 0.9, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> &lt; 0.001). There were no significant differences in echocardiographic function or catheterization hemodynamics. In cardiopulmonary exercise testing performance, the congenital heart disease group had a significantly higher resting heart rate (91.8 ± 11.2 vs. 86.4 ± 10.2 bpm, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.019), lower percent predicted age‐predicted maximal heart rate achieved (78.3 ± 8.5% vs. 83.2 ± 11.4%, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.032), and lower heart rate reserve (68.6 ± 19.8 vs. 84.4 ± 24.0 bpm, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.001) despite a similar age and average time from transplantation. Regression analysis confirmed number of pretransplant sternotomies as a main predictor of heart rate metrics.ConclusionsThere is greater chronotropic incompetence in patients who underwent transplantation due to congenital heart disease compared to cardiomyopathy. The groups differ significantly by number of sternotomies, potentially supporting the hypothesis that prior surgical disruption of cardiac innervation may cause decreased chronotropic response to exercise following transplantation.","PeriodicalId":20038,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Transplantation","volume":"41 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142259770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
