Results

Changes in BP > +/-20 mmHg or HR > +20 bpm were observed in 3 cases in NMES group (8.8%) and 5 in control group(12.8%). New-onset arrhythmia was not observed during all session. During hospitalization, 1 patient in each group newly developed AF and lethal ventricular arrhythmias were documented in 3 patients in control group. 31 patients in NMSE group (91%) and 33 patients in control group (84%) completed the planned sessions during hospitalization. This study fulfilled the preset feasibility criteria.

Baseline Characteristics

median age 72 years, 51 men, mean left ventricular ejection fraction 40.4%

Participant flow

Among 372 subjects who were admitted for acute heart failure, 78 were allocated. A total of 73 patients who finished the first session were analyzed (NMES group: n=34, control group: n=39).

Adverse events

Cerebral infarction developed in two patients in the NMES group and one in the control group. Lethal ventricular arrhythmia was documented in two patients in the control group. Two patients showed worsening of HF requiring endotracheal intubation more than 24 h after admission and one patient in the control group died during hospitalization. Heart failure symptom including dyspnea and fatigue did not change just before and after and during sessions in all cases. No patients showed electromagnetic interference during the first session.

Outcome measures

(1) change in systolic blood pressure (BP) > +/-20 mmHg during the first session; (2) increase in heart rate (HR) > + 20 bpm during the first session; (3) development of sustained ventricular arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation (AF), and paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia during all sessions; (4) incidence of new-onset AF during the hospitalization period < 40%; and (5) completion of the planned sessions by > 70% of patients. The criteria of feasibility were set as follows; the percentage to fill one of (1)-(3) was < 20% of the total subjects and both (4) and (5) were satisfied.
