AHA 22: EAST-AFNET4: Rhythm Control Therapy in Atrial Fibrillation
Author(s): Shino Kany Added: 1 year ago
AHA 22 - Dr Shino Kany (Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Cambridge, MA, US) joins us to discuss the association of genetic risk and outcomes in patients receiving early rhythm control therapy for atrial fibrillation in the EAST-AFNET 4 trial. EAST-AFNET 4 aimed to compare early rhythm control to usual care amongst patients with a recent diagnosis of atrial fibrillation, randomised in a 1:1… View more

ESC 23: The SurHyb Trial
Author(s): Alan Bulava Added: 7 months ago
ESC 2023 — Dr Alan Bulava (Ceske Budejovice Hospital and University of South Bohemia, CZ) joins us in this succinct interview to discuss the findings from the SurHyb trial. The SurHyb study was a prospective, open-label-multicentre randomized trial. The study aimed to evaluate CryoMaze surgery alone, as compared to CryoMaze followed by radiofrequency catheter ablation 3-months post-surgery. … View more

Electrical Remodelling Evidence Supporting Atrial Remodelling The concept of electrical remodelling was first introduced in 1995 simultaneously by Wijffels et al.1 and Morillo et al.2 who demonstrated that once sustained atrial fibrillation (AF) was induced in goats, or rapid atrial pacing was performed in dogs, physiological changes occurred that favoured the maintenance of AF.3 This led to the… View more

In the United States, atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia affecting approximately six million patients and contributing to a greatly increased risk of stroke, heart failure (HF) and overall morbidity and mortality.1,2 The prevalence of AF is increasing as the average age of the population increases.3,4 Currently available therapies for AF are suboptimal… View more

Worldwide obesity has reached pandemic proportions with more than 1.9 billion adults classed as overweight in 2016, of which 650million were obese.1 Since it is a major modifiable risk factor for so many cardiovascular diseases, it is no surprise there has been an exponential increase in cases of AF coinciding with the rise in obesity. While there were an estimated 8.8 million cases of AF in 2010… View more

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice and may be associated with symptoms, haemodynamic impairment and frightening embolic complications. In 1998 recommendations on the management of AF were reported by the Working Group of Arrhythmias of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC). 1 The American College of Cardiology (ACC), the American… View more

Burden of Atrial Fibrillation Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia in clinical practice, accounting for approximately one-third of hospitalisations for cardiac rhythm disturbances.1 Between 1980 and 2000, the age-adjusted incidence of AF significantly increased from 3.04 to 3.68 per 1,000 person-years in the US.2 The prevalence of AF was lower among African Americans… View more
