Cardiac tachyarrhythmias and patient values and preferences for their management: the European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) consensus document endorsed by the Heart Rhythm Society (HRS), Asia Pacific Heart Rhythm Society (APHRS), and Sociedad Latinoamericana de Estimulacion Cardiaca y Electrofisiologia (SOLEACE)
Open accessAbstract
Cardiac tachyarrhythmias are recurrent or chronic and in some cases life-threatening conditions. Heart rhythm disturbances are of-ten highly symptomatic and the psychological impact of the disease can be significant. Patients’ beliefs and knowledge about their health(and illness), medications, and healthcare they receive are important determinants of whether or not they accept recommended treatments; influence their coping responses to their illness and treatment; adherence to recommended therapy; and ultimately affects health outcomes. Incorporation of patients’ values and preferences for therapy should now be considered as an integral part of the decision-making process and treatment strategy.It is important to acknowledge and understand the impact of cardiac tachyarrhythmias on the patient. To address this issue, a TaskForce was convened by the European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA), and endorsed by the Heart Rhythm Society (HRS),Asia-Pacific Heart Rhythm Society (APHRS), and Sociedad Latinoa-mericana de Estimulacio ́n Cardı ́aca y Electrofisiologı ́a (SOLEACE),with the remit to comprehensively review the published evidenceavailable, to publish a joint consensus document on patient valuesand preferences for the management of cardiac tachyarrhythmias, and to provide up-to-date consensus recommendations for use in clinical practice. Hence this unique consensus document focuses on patients, summarizing the available literature on patients’ experiences of living with various cardiac tachyarrhythmias and their treatment preferences,and identifies gaps in knowledge which will help to inform clinical practice and future research. The document will also summarize key points for discussions with patients during consultations regarding their condition, treatment options, disease trajectory, treatment goals, and outcomes. Finally, this document provides links to useful resources and patient advocacy groups and organizations and professional societies relevant to each group of cardiac tachyarrhythmias.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
