Presence and duration of atrial fibrillation detected by continuous monitoring: crucial implications for the risk of thromboembolic events
Open accessAbstract
INTRODUCTION: Asymptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF) can expose patients to the risk of stroke. The primary objective of this study was to assess the incidence of thromboembolic events in relationship with CHADS(2) (congestive heart failure, hypertension, age >or=75 years, diabetes mellitus, and prior stroke, or transient ischemic attack) score and AF presence/duration. The secondary objective was to compare intermittent versus continuous monitoring strategies. METHODS AND RESULTS: Data from patients with an implanted pacemaker and a history of AF were analyzed. Thromboembolic risk was quantified through CHADS(2) score. Three AF groups were considered: patients with <5-minutes AF on 1 day (AF-free); patients with >5-minutes AF on 1 day but <24 hours (AF-5 minutes); patients with AF episodes >24 hours (AF-24 hours). Monitoring strategies involving 24-hour Holter, 1-week Holter, and 30-day Holter were simulated. Data from 568 patients continuously monitored for 1 year were analyzed: 171 (30%) had CHADS(2) score = 0; 269 (47%) had CHADS(2) score = 1; 111 (20%) had CHADS(2) score = 2; and 17 (3%) had CHADS(2) score >or= 3. During follow-up, 14 patients (2.5%) had an ischemic thromboembolic event. AF-24 hours patients numbered 223 (39.2%); AF-5 minutes, 179 (31.5%); and AF-free, 29.2%. By combining AF presence/duration with CHADS(2) score, two subpopulations with markedly different risks of events (0.8% vs 5%, P = 0.035) were identified, the former corresponding to AF-free with CHADS(2) 5 minutes was 44.4%, 50.4%, and 65.1% for 24-hour Holter, 1-week Holter, and 1-month Holter monitoring, respectively. CONCLUSION: In patients with recurrent AF episodes, risk stratification for thromboembolic events can be improved by combining CHADS(2) score with AF presence/duration.

Once atrial fibrillation has been diagnosed as a cause of palpitations, there is limited data on the importance of assessing atrial fibrillation burden for evaluating thromboembolic risk, and more information is needed.
“However, it must be underlined that once atrial fibrillation has been diagnosed as a cause of palpitations, there is up to now only limited data on the importance of assessing atrial fibrillation burden for the evaluation of thromboembolic risk, and more information is still needed.67,91”

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.
