    Applicability of the PAINESD risk score for 30-day mortality prediction post ventricular tachycardia catheter ablation in Chagas disease
    (2021) KULCHETSCKI, R. M.; PISANI, C. F.; ALEXANDRE, F. K. B.; MAYRINK, M. P.; FERRAZ, A. P.; GOUVEA, F. C.; GONCALVES, A. L. M.; HARDY, C. A.; MELO, S. L.; CHOKR, M. O.; SCANAVACCA, M. I.
    Purpose The PAINESD risk score was developed in 2015 as a tool to stratify the risk of acute hemodynamic decompensation during ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation in structural heart disease patients and further then used for post procedure 30-day mortality prediction. The original cohort however did not include Chagas disease (ChD) patients. We aim to evaluate the relevance of the score in a ChD population. Methods The PAINESD risk score gives weighted values for specific characteristics (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, age > 60 years, ischemic cardiomyopathy, New York Heart Association [NYHA] functional class 3 or 4, ejection fraction less than 25%, VT storm, and diabetes). The score was applied in a retrospective cohort of ChD VT ablations in a single tertiary center in Brazil. Data were collected by VT study reports and patient record analysis at baseline and on follow-up. Results Between January 2013 and December 2018, 157 VT catheter ablation procedures in 121 ChD patients were analyzed. Overall, 30-day mortality was 9.0%. Multivariate analysis correlated NYHA functional class (HR 1.78, 95% CI 1.03-3.08, P 0.038) and the need for urgent surgery (HR 31.5, 95% CI 5.38-184.98, P < 0.001), as well as a tendency for VT storm at presentation (HR 2.72, 95% CI 0.87-8.50, P 0.084) as risk factors for the primary endpoint. The median PAINESD risk score in this population was 3 (3-8). The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 0.64 (95% CI 0.479-0.814). Conclusions The PAINESD risk score did not perform well in predicting 30-day mortality in ChD patients. Pre-procedure NYHA functional class and the need for urgent surgery due to refractory pericardial bleeding were independently associated with increased 30-day mortality. Prospective studies are needed to take final conclusions in Chagas disease when using PAINESD score.
