Contemporary management of atrial fibrillation and the predicted vs. absolute risk of ischaemic stroke despite treatment: a report from ESC-EHRA EORP-AF Long-Term General Registry

Wern Yew Ding, Carina Blomström‐Lundqvist, Laurent Fauchier, Francisco Marı́n et autres

BACKGROUND: Risk stratification in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is important to facilitate guideline-directed therapies. The Calculator of Absolute Stroke Risk (CARS) scheme enables an individualized estimation of 1-year absolute risk of stroke in AF. We aimed to investigate the predicted and …

Clinical complexity and impact of the ABC (Atrial fibrillation Better Care) pathway in patients with atrial fibrillation: a report from the ESC-EHRA EURObservational Research Programme in AF General Long-Term Registry

Giulio Francesco Romiti, Marco Proietti, Marco Vitolo, Niccolò Bonini et autres

BACKGROUND: Clinical complexity is increasingly prevalent among patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). The 'Atrial fibrillation Better Care' (ABC) pathway approach has been proposed to streamline a more holistic and integrated approach to AF care; however, there are limited data on its usefulness …

Epidemiology and impact of frailty in patients with atrial fibrillation in Europe

Giulio Francesco Romiti, Marco Vitolo, Stephanie L. Harrison, Michael Näbauer et autres

BACKGROUND: Frailty is a medical syndrome characterised by reduced physiological reserve and increased vulnerability to stressors. Data regarding the relationship between frailty and atrial fibrillation (AF) are still inconsistent. OBJECTIVES: We aim to perform a comprehensive evaluation of frailty in a large …

Impact of anthropometric factors on outcomes in atrial fibrillation patients: analysis on 10 220 patients from the European Society of Cardiology (ESC)-European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) EurObservational Research Programme on Atrial Fibrillation (EORP-AF) general long-term registry

Giuseppe Boriani, Marco Vitolo, Vincenzo Livio Malavasi, Marco Proietti et autres

AIM: To investigate the association of anthropometric parameters [height, weight, body mass index (BMI), body surface area (BSA), and lean body mass (LBM)] with outcomes in atrial fibrillation (AF). METHODS AND RESULTS: Ten-thousand two-hundred twenty patients were enrolled [40.3% females, median age …

Impact of diabetes on the management and outcomes in atrial fibrillation: an analysis from the ESC-EHRA EORP-AF Long-Term General Registry

Wern Yew Ding, Agnieszka Kotalczyk, Giuseppe Boriani, Francisco Marı́n et autres

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of atrial fibrillation(AF) and diabetes mellitus is rising to epidemic proportions. We aimed to assess the impact of diabetes on the management and outcomes of patients with AF. METHODS: The EORP-AF General Long-Term Registry is a prospective, observational registry …

Impact of clinical phenotypes on management and outcomes in European atrial fibrillation patients: a report from the ESC-EHRA EURObservational Research Programme in AF (EORP-AF) General Long-Term Registry

Marco Proietti, Marco Vitolo, Stephanie L. Harrison, Deirdre A. Lane et autres

BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies in atrial fibrillation (AF) illustrate that clinical complexity increase the risk of major adverse outcomes. We aimed to describe European AF patients' clinical phenotypes and analyse the differential clinical course. METHODS: We performed a hierarchical cluster analysis based on …

Comparison of HAS-BLED and ORBIT bleeding risk scores in atrial fibrillation patients treated with non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants: a report from the ESC-EHRA EORP-AF General Long-Term Registry

Marco Proietti, Giulio Francesco Romiti, Marco Vitolo, Tatjana Potpara et autres

AIMS: Bleeding risk assessment is recommended in guidelines for the management of atrial fibrillation (AF). The HAS-BLED score was proposed prior to non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) and it has been suggested that the ORBIT score may be superior in predicting …

Association between antithrombotic treatment and outcomes at 1-year follow-up in patients with atrial fibrillation: the EORP-AF General Long-Term Registry

Giuseppe Boriani, Marco Proietti, Cécile Laroche, Laurent Fauchier et autres

AIMS: In recent years, stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) has radically changed, with increasing use of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs). Contemporary European data on AF thromboprophylaxis are needed. METHODS AND RESULTS: We report 1-year follow-up data from …

Female professionals' experiences whilst accessing and undergoing fertility treatment: voice and (in)visibility in the workplace

L. Buchanan, K. Thory

To date, fertility treatment (FT) and its impacts on professional women is a little researched topic in gender and organisation studies.This seems surprising given that a growing number of women are accessing fertility treatment in the UK (HFEA, 2014) and as the …

Contemporary stroke prevention strategies in 11 096 European patients with atrial fibrillation: a report from the EURObservational Research Programme on Atrial Fibrillation (EORP-AF) Long-Term General Registry

Giuseppe Boriani, Marco Proietti, Cécile Laroche, Laurent Fauchier et autres

Aims: Contemporary data regarding atrial fibrillation (AF) management and current use of oral anticoagulants (OACs) for stroke prevention are needed. Methods and results: The EURObservational Research Programme on AF (EORP-AF) Long-Term General Registry analysed consecutive AF patients presenting to cardiologists in 250 …

32 Does complete revascularisation confers a long term survival benefit in patients with chronically occluded coronary vessels?: Abstract 32 Figure 1

Nisar Shah, Muhammad Fayaz Khan, Tamás Ungvári, P LOH et autres

Introduction Chronic total occlusion (CTO) of coronary vessels is a relatively common finding on diagnostic angiography. There has been increasing interest in this clinically important area with development of technologies resulting in improved recanalisation rates. However, long term survival data in this …
