Abstract Background Catheter ablation for ventricular arrhythmias, including ventricular tachycardia (VT) and premature ventricular complexes (PVC) is increasingly utilized across the nation, while data on its safety in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients is sparse. Purpose To analyze the nationwide trends in utilization and complications of inpatient ventricular arrhythmia ablations in patients with HCM. Methods This study is a retrospective analysis of hospitalizations, in HCM patients 18 years of age and older, who underwent an inpatient VA ablation in the U.S., between 2016 and 2020. We drew data from the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database. Patients without HCM undergoing the CA for VA were used as controls. Baseline sociodemographic and clinical data, procedural complications, mortality and length of stay were analyzed. Multivariable analysis was performed to identify independent predictors of procedural complications. Results Among a weighted total of 2880 patients hospitalized between 2016 and 2020, who underwent VA ablations, the median age was 67 years (IQR 56-74), 60% were male, and 73% were white. The HCM group had similar age distribution but more women (64.5% vs 33.6%, p<0.001) and more African Americans (13.2% vs. 7.3%, p=0.03). The non-HCM cohort had significantly higher rates of prior myocardial infarction (22% vs 12.4%, p=0.026), ischemic cardiomyopathy (30.1% vs 0.8%, p<0.001), heart failure (70.5% vs 39.7%, p<0.001), and peripheral vascular disease (PVD, 42.9% vs 18.2%, p<0.001). This was reflected in higher Deyo Comorbidity Index in the non-HCM cohort (score of ≥ 2 in 66.6% vs 43%, p<0.001). Overall, the real-world peri-procedural complication rate in the entire cohort was 15.3%, including 6.4% hemorrhagic, 4.5% pericardial, and 2.3% vascular complications. There was a trend for lower complication rate in the HCM group (9.9% vs. 16.7%, p = 0.08). The in-hospital mortality didn’t defer (1.7% vs. 4.2%, p=0.28) and the length of stay was shorter in the HCM group (3.5 vs. 6.4 days, p < 0.001). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed obesity (OR 2.06; 95%CI: 1.59 - 2.67; p<0.001) and PVD (OR 2.19; 95%CI: 1.34-3.53; p=0.001) to be independent predictors of complications while HCM was not (OR 0.76, 95% CI 0.51-1.14, p = 0.195). Conclusion Real-world data from a nationwide inpatient database shows comparable safety for VA ablation in HCM patients with similar mortality and lower length of stay, compared to non-HCM patients.
