2 Acknowledgments The implant registration data that allows the construction of reports such as this is contributed on a voluntary basis by all pacemaker implanting hospitals in the United Kingdom. The data is held in the National Pacemaker Database, established in 1977 by Dr Anthony Rickards, and now part of the Central Cardiac Audit Database (CCAD which runs the national cardiac audits as part of the National Institute for Cardiovascular Outcomes Research (NICOR), which is part of University College London. Anonymised extracts from the National Pacemaker Database were used to generate this report, with the express permission of the owners of the data, Heart Rhythm UK and the full agreement of the Department of Health Heart Team and HQIP. This national audit is funded as part of the National Clinical Audit & Patient Outcome Programme (NCAPOP), which is managed by the Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership (HQIP The preparation of this report was supported by HQIP. Data collection was carried out by CCAD with support provided from NHS Improvement ( and the Cardiac Networks. The study was performed with the knowledge and support of the British Cardiovascular Society and Heart Rhythm UK. Clinical review of the report was carried out by Dr Richard Charles, Chairman of the Network Devices Survey Group. The report may be downloaded from British Cardiovascular Society 2

4 Data Quality Statement The quality of the analyses in this report is only as good as the quality of the data that supports it. That data is originally submitted by hospitals to the National Pacemaker Database. If there is a deficit in registration, or if registrations do not contain a valid postcode, then analysis gaps are inevitable. Data is then anonymised and extracted to provide the basis of the analysis by the Survey Group. To minimise the risk of deficit errors, a threshold of 98% for registration and postcode completeness is sought for each hospital. Overall network completeness MUST reach 98% or a report will not be issued. Every effort is made to ensure this report is as accurate as possible - however please contact us if you identify any residual problem and we will try to correct the error promptly. Below is a list of important hospitals for this network and their completeness of VALID postcodes during the study period.

8 PCTs/LHBs in the Network Total population 0.7 million. PCT/LHB Population Old PCT (where relevant*) Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board 670,700 * The revision of PCT boundaries in 2006 has resulted in some PCTs being "split" across Cardiac Network boundaries. In these cases only the relevant portion of the new PCT will be included in this report, as defined by the old PCT boundaries. 8
9 Network Age and Sex Distribution Population data from ONS, based on mid-2006 population estimates Data for England Average age: 39.5 (for comparison): % aged 70+: 11.60% Population PCT / LHB Age Male Female Age Male Female Population: 670, : 18,600 17, : 20,600 22,100 Average age: : 20,500 19, : 22,300 23,100 % aged 70+: 13.4% 11-15: 22,300 21, : 24,200 24,300 * Older than national average Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board 16-20: 21,900 20, : 19,200 20, : 18,500 18, : 16,800 17, : 17,100 17, : 13,700 16, : 21,400 22, : 10,500 14, : 23,200 24, : 7,200 12, : 22,600 23, : 4,200 11,100 Note: A PCT is considered to be older than average the percentage for aged 70+ is greater than or equal to 13.1% and it is considered to be younger than average if the percentage for aged 70+ is less than or equal to 10.3%. 9
10 Correcting Implant Rates for Age and Sex Calculating Need Most pacemakers are implanted for conduction system disease, which is predominantly a disease of the elderly. The graph (right) shows the percentage of the population in 5 year age bands, and the percentage of pacemaker implants. Only 11% of the population are aged 70 or more, but they receive 76% of all pacemaker implants. Men also receive more pacemakers than women. Although the national average new implant rate is 528, it reaches more than 11,000 in men aged more than 90 (right). So the proportion of older people in a local population will strongly influence how many pacemakers need to be implanted. If we examine closely the age and sex distribution of the local population of a PCT (LHB in Wales) or Network, we can work out how many pacemakers we would EXPECT to see implanted, compared to the national average. The ratio of the local and national rate is called the Relative Need, and we calculate this for both pacemakers and ICDs. So, for example, in North East London the population is relatively young. Only 8% are aged 70 or more, compared to the national average of 11%. This means that this network doesn't need as many pacemaker implants relative to the nation as a whole. Their Relative Need for Pacing is calculated to be 80% of the national average. In contrast, Sussex has a more elderly population, with 16% aged 70 or over. Their Relative Need for Pacing is 140%. 10
11 Using Relative Need We want to make a fair and valid comparison between PCTs/LHBs, Networks and the National Average. That means we should correct for relative need. So, for example if North London has a pacing rate of 480, and Sussex has a rate of 840, are they different? North London's adjusted rate is 480 divided by relative need (80%) = 600. Sussex's adjusted rate is 840 divided by 140% = 600. So the adjusted rates for these two areas are the same, despite the major apparent difference in their unadjusted rates. Implantable Defibrillators The diseases for which ICDs are implanted are not the same as for pacemakers, and tend to occur in slightly younger people. These diseases are principally ischaemic heart disease and cardiomyopathy. We therefore need to calculate a separate relative need factor for ICDs. The graph (right) of new ICD implant rate in 2006 shows that ICDs are also predominantly implanted in older people. Unlike pacemakers, the ICD implant rate starts to decline over the age of 75. The influence of a local elderly population of need for ICDs will therefore still be present, but just slightly less in magnitude than for pacemakers. Sussex, for instance, has a relative ICD need of 138%. 11
12 Relative need for Pacemakers and ICDs Indicative new implant rate Pacemakers: 528 ICD: 72 (average for England 2010) Average age: A PCT with a relatively OLD population will need relatively MORE pacemaker and ICD implants compared to a PCT with a young population, because the incidence of indications for pacing and ICD is higher in older people. Average age Expected pacing new implant rate Compared to national average Expected ICD new implant rate Compared to national average Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board % % Cardiac Network - Relative Need for New Implant Rate % % England (for comparison) England % % Note: "Expected" pacing and ICD rates are relative to national average rate, but are corrected depending on the age and sex distribution of the local population (see Page 12). For Pacemakers, the expected implant rate will be higher if the percentage of older people in the PCT is higher. For ICDs, the same general rule applies, but the pattern is slightly different, because ICD implant rates peak at age 70 and then decrease rapidly. These relative rates will be used to correct the observed rates and produce a truer reflection of local implant rates vs. local need. 12
13 New and Total PM and ICD Implants Pacemakers The following hospitals implanted pacemakers in patients from this cardiac network in A new pacemaker centre will implant nearly 100% new implants, and the longer a centre has been implanting, the higher the percentage of replacements implants. The national average for replacement implants is 21.79% of the total workload. This should always be borne in mind when forecasting future workload Replacement implants Centre New Implants Total Implants % of total GWY Gwynedd Hospital % WRX Maelor Hospital % CLW Glan Clwyd District General Hospital % BHL Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital % COC Countess of Chester Hospital 5 5 MOR Morriston Hospital 3 3 AHM The Alexandra Hospital % RSS Royal Shrewsbury Hospital 2 WWG West Wales General 1 1 RLU Royal Liverpool University Hospital 1 1 MRI Manchester Royal Infirmary 1 1 UCL University College Hospital 1 1 AEI Royal Albert Edward Infirmary 1 1 WYT Wythenshawe Hospital 1 13

15 Pacemaker new implant rate in context Is the PCT new implant rate too high or too low, compared to the national target of 700? The funnel plot below shows the national target (grey line) and the upper (green) and lower (red) control limits. PCTs are shown in light blue circles, and this network's PCTs are shown as larger blue circles. If a PCT's rate is above the green line, it may be excessively high. If it is below the red line, it may be too low PCT New Implant Rate National Target Upper Control Limit Low er Control Limit PCT in This Netw ork significantly above national target PCT pacemaker new implant rate consistent w ith national target 200 significantly below national target , , , ,000 1,000,000 1,200,000 1,400,000 PCT population Funnel plots are a way of displaying performance against a national average or target. Here, the national target of 700 is shown as a horizontal grey line. The small blue dots represent the new implant rate (yaxis) in each PCT in the country plotted against that PCTs population (x-axis). The individual PCTs in THIS NETWORK are plotted as larger blue circles. The CONTROL LIMITS determine whether a PCT's new implant rate is significantly greater than (green line) or less than (red line) the national target. The statistical significance level was chosen to ensure that the total risk of one or more PCTs being outside the control limits by random chance is no more than 5%. 15

19 CRT implants in this network Heart failure is a major and growing public health problem in all Western countries, and is associated with high morbidity and mortality despite optimal medical therapy. Clinical trials of high scientific quality published in recent years have consistently found that cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) improves symptoms, quality of life, exercise tolerance and survival in appropriately chosen patients with advanced heart failure and evidence of left ventricular dyssynchrony who are refractory to optimal medical therapy. CRT involves simultaneous pacing of the left and right ventricles (CRT-P), and may be combined, in the same device, with a defibrillation function (CRT-D). Although CRT involves pacing the heart, it should not be confused with 'classical' pacing for bradycardia - the vast majority of CRT recipients do not require pacing for bradycardia. The function of pacing is to make the ventricles beat at the same time ('resynchronisation'). Within this report, data for CRT-P and CRT-D are quantified separately from pacing and ICD data respectively. In the UK, CRT is provided predominantly by tertiary centres with a special interest in cardiac device therapy. Despite the high prevalence of heart failure, uptake of CRT in the UK is amongst the lowest in Western Europe. NICE published guidelines on the cost effectiveness of CRT in 2007, and it is expected that clinical demand for CRT therapy will continue to rise significantly in coming years.

29 Pacing Mode for Sick Sinus Syndrome There is ample evidence from major clinical trials and support from NICE guidelines (NICE Technology Appraisal 88, 2005) that use of ventricular pacing modes in patients with sick sinus syndrome can lead to poor outcomes, notably an increased incidence of atrial fibrillation and pacemaker syndrome. Pacing modes in sick sinus syndrome should be atrial based (i.e. dual chamber or atrial). The Western European average in 2005 was 92% atrial based pacing for SSS. In the UK the average was 81% in 2009 and 84% in Any percentage of ventricular based pacing greater than 10% has been shaded pink, and may be considered higher than desirable. A percentage greater than 20% is considered definitely too high and is shown in a shaded red box. Percentages greater than 50% are shown shaded black. NB: the % of atrial based pacing shown for a centre applies only to patients residing in THIS NETWORK and may differ overall.

32 Corrected and Actual New Implant Rates Pacemakers Expected and Actual New Implant Rates Explanatory note: The "Raw" new implant rate is the actual implant rate of new pacemakers per million population in each PCT. The "corrected" rate is the raw rate, adjusted for relative need so if a PCT has an aging population, its relative need is > 100% and its corrected rate will be reduced to reflect that need. Comparisons between PCTs and with network and national averages should be made using corrected rate.

41 Conclusions The population is very old compared to the average for England and Wales. There is a consequent 21% extra need for pacemakers and 15% for ICDs compared to the average. The network new pacemaker implant rate has increased but continues to track well below the national average. The network ICD new implant rate increased significantly and is well above the national average. There was a significant increase in the total CRT implantation rate, but overall it remains below the national average. The proportion of atrial based pacing (56%) is lower than the national average of 66%. Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital (46%) and Maelor Hospital have higher rates of ventricular based pacemaker implants for sick sinus syndrome; this is not compliant with NICE TAG 88 (2005). 41
