There has been a recent shift in bradycardia pacing and defibrillation therapy to leadless pacemakers and extrathoracic cardioverter-defibrillator technology due to complications associated with transvenous devices. These innovations have implications for anesthesia care, as these novel devices have design and functionality features different from transvenous devices. Current perioperative guidelines do not address management of leadless pacemakers and the subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, although implantation rates are increasing globally. This article addresses the features and capabilities of nontransvenous cardiac implantable electronic devices, such as the Micra and the subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, and provides guidance for perioperative management.

This article is the third in an annual series for the Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia. The authors thank the Editor-in-Chief Dr. Kaplan, the Associate Editor-in-Chief Dr. Augoustides, and the editorial board for the opportunity to continue this series; namely, the highlights of the year that pertain to electrophysiology in relation to cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesia. This third article focuses on the convergent procedure, His-bundle pacing, a comparison of subcutaneous and transvenous defibrillator therapies, the 2020 practice advisory update for the perioperative management of patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices, and a technology update regarding the Micra AV (Medtronic, Moundsview, MN), the EMPOWER leadless pacemaker (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA), WiSE-CRT (EBR Systems, Sunnyvale, CA), the Extravascular Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (Medtronic, Moundsview, MN), and the BAROSTIM NEO (CVRx Inc, Minneapolis, MN).

PURPOSE: To determine whether primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and ocular hypertensive (OHT) patients who harbor the myocilin Gln368Stop mutation differ in phenotype or clinical course from patients without the mutation. DESIGN: Case-control study. METHODS: A retrospective case-control study compared all known POAG patients (n = 18) and OHT patients (n = 4) harboring the Gln368Stop mutation evaluated by the University of Iowa Glaucoma Service with control patients from the same population. Patients and control subjects were matched for diagnosis, age, sex, and race and were compared for phenotype and clinical course. RESULTS: Mean age of disease onset and mean peak intraocular pressures (IOPs) of cases were similar to those reported by other studies. There was no statistically significant difference between cases and controls for the following variables: age at onset, peak intraocular pressure, Snellen visual acuity, number of medications, Humphrey visual field (HVF) mean deviation, HVF pattern deviation, number of filtering surgeries performed, time intervals from diagnosis to argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT), diagnosis to first filtering surgery, ALT to first filtering surgery, and percent change in IOP after ALT and after first filtering surgery. CONCLUSIONS: There is no statistically significant difference between the onset and clinical course of POAG and OHT caused by the Gln368Stop mutation and POAG and OHT not associated with the mutation.

PURPOSE: To report a case of progressive axial myopia associated with traumatic glaucoma in a juvenile patient with no systemic disease. DESIGN: Interventional case report. METHODS: In a 15-year-old male, serial ocular examinations, including manifest refraction, tonometry, and axial eye length measurement, were performed over a 6-year period, beginning with blunt trauma, right eye, followed by a series of surgical procedures for traumatic cataract and glaucoma. RESULTS: A 4-diopter myopic shift (from -1.25 to -5.25) with a 1.5 mm increase in the axial eye length occurred, whereas the intraocular pressure increased from 21 to 46 mm Hg, during a 2-year period. The refraction, axial eye length, and intraocular pressure remained stable during the same period in the fellow, normal eye. CONCLUSION: Progressive axial myopia associated with traumatic glaucoma is possible in a juvenile patient in his late teens.
