ObjectivesThis study sought to evaluate the incidence, prognosis and treatment of heart rhythm disorders (TdR) in Tako-tsubo syndrome (STT). BackgroundSTT is associated with TdR. The TdR prognostic value is not well characterized in STT yet. MethodsThe TdR of patients included in the National Registry of Tako-tsubo syndrome (XXX1), admitted between 2002 and 2018 and coming from 38 hospitals throughout the country, was analyzed. We analyzed any heart rhythm disorder in patients presented before admission, at admission and in long-term follow-up. ResultsAll types of TdR were described in 259 (23.5%) cases, from a cohort of 1,097 consecutive patients with STT. TdR was more associated with Diabetes Mellitus, smoking, hyperuricemia, sleep apnea, anemia with a worse LVEF on admission. The most frequent TdR was a new onset of atrial fibrillation (FA). During hospitalization, patients with TdR showed more complications such as shock on admission, major bleeding, acute renal failure, and combined infections. At follow-up, they presented higher mortality and more MACE, but with a non-significant correlation. ConclusionsThe incidence of TdR in patients with STT is not infrequent. STT, when associated with TdR, presents more complications and a worse prognosis both in hospital and in the long term.
