HAT: Background • SCA occurs every 2-3 minutes in the U.S. • 50% have no known heart disease • 70% occur in the home • 50% of home SCA occurs in the bedroom or adjacent bathroom • VF in 90% of SCA • Death risk increases 10% per minute of collapse
Expected Survival for OOH-VF Cardiac-rehabilitation programs, electrophysiology laboratories PAD programs Survival (%) Home, after EMS response to 911 request Estimated Time from Collapse to Defibrillator Shock (minutes) Weaver WD et al. NEJM 2002; 347:1223
HAT: Population • A balance between sufficient risk and too much risk • ICD population too much risk, ~ 7% per annum • Goal: modest risk, ~4% per annum, sufficient to test the hypothesis within reasonable time and cost.
HAT: Hypothesis • An AED in the home would reduce all-cause mortality above that achieved from a conventional lay response to SCA.
HAT Protocol Anterior MI post-hospitalization, any duration No cath, EF, echo requirements +Spouse/Companion No ICD b-blocker, statin, ACEI, ASA Made aware of SCD potential R Call EMS 1st CPR 2nd Use AED 1st Call 2nd, CPR 3rd N=7,000
Sample Size/Power Considerations • Predicted control mortality rate: 4% annually (10% at 2.5 years) • Half the deaths projected to be sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) • VF in >90% of SCA • Patients at home with spouse/companion >50% of the time • Loss of spouse/companion <5% • Crossover rate <2% • Use of AED projected to reduce • Death from SCA by 40% • Total mortality by 20% • Alpha = 0.05, Power = 0.90 • Target sample size: 7,000 patients
HAT: Therapy • Video based self-instruction • with or without an AED section appropriate for arm of study • Booklet, internet, phone support • Optional hands-on staff instruction • Yearly follow-up and after events • All data and randomization web-based
AED for Home Use • About the size of a Dostoyevsky novel • Weight 3.3 pounds • Adaptive voice coaching • Activate by pressing Blue “i” Button • Coaches basic assessment, CPR steps • Indicates rate, depth for CPR • Changes rescue instructions according to speed of response of user i
HAT: Recommended AED Location • Keep in visible location in bedroom or adjacent bathroom. • Visibility allows check for functionality at a glance. • AED not to be moved unless away from home > 1 day.
HAT: Endpoints Primary All-cause mortality Secondary Sudden cardiac mortality In-home, witnessed mortality AED safety and effectiveness
HAT Study Timeline • First patient enrolled January 23, 2003 • Last patient enrolled October 20, 2005 • total = 7001 patients • Last follow-up September 30, 2007 • Data base locked March 27, 2008 • Randomization at 178 clinical sites in 7 countries

Conclusions • HAT evaluated the all-cause mortality benefit of AEDs in the homes of patients with a previous anterior-wall MI who were not otherwise candidates for an ICD.
Conclusions • HAT evaluated the all-cause mortality benefit of AEDs in the homes of patients with a previous anterior-wall MI who were not otherwise candidates for an ICD. • Mortality rates over 4 years of follow-up were low, ~half the level expected from prior data.

Conclusions • HAT evaluated the all-cause mortality benefit of AEDs in the homes of patients with a previous anterior-wall MI who were not otherwise candidates for an ICD. • Mortality rates over 4 years of follow-up were low, ~half the level expected from prior data. • AEDS were used without any adverse consequences or inappropriate shocks. • There was no significant reduction in death from any cause with a home AED. • The very low event rate, the high proportion of unwitnessed events, and the underuse of AEDs in emergencies, rather than a lack of device efficacy, appear to explain these results.
