Atrial fibrillation post CABG and the risk of arrhythmia recurrence: the AFRODITE study
Background
New-onset postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) occurs with an incidence of 20–40%. The clinical relevance of POAF remains a concern, and the need for further studies regarding the clinical management of POAF is necessary.
Aim
The AFRODITE study, a prospective multicenter cohort study, had as its primary endpoint the evaluation of AF recurrence in patients post CABG over a one-year period.
Methods
Two hundred twenty-eight patients aged >50 years who underwent isolated CABG were included in the study. Patients were stratified into two groups, POAF and non-POAF, and followed for 12 months for AF recurrence, hospitalizations, and death.
Results
Two hundred twenty-eight patients (mean age 67 years, 88.6% male) were included in the study. 28.5% of patients experienced at least one episode of POAF during index hospitalization (POAF group) and were compared with the non-POAF group (n = 163). Multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis showed that the strongest prognostic parameter for POAF was the CHA2DS2-VASc score (odds ratio = 1.61, p < 0.001). POAF patients had a worse in-hospital outcome, but the incidence of long-term AF recurrence was not statistically different (3.6% vs. 4.8%, p = 0.9).
Conclusion
Interestingly, a one-year prospective follow-up of patients in the study did not reveal significant differences between POAF and non-POAF patients. A notable finding was that patients with a higher CHA2DS2-VASc score were more likely to develop POAF.
期刊介绍:
The Hellenic Journal of Cardiology (International Edition, ISSN 1109-9666) is the official journal of the Hellenic Society of Cardiology and aims to publish high-quality articles on all aspects of cardiovascular medicine. A primary goal is to publish in each issue a number of original articles related to clinical and basic research. Many of these will be accompanied by invited editorial comments.
Hot topics, such as molecular cardiology, and innovative cardiac imaging and electrophysiological mapping techniques, will appear frequently in the journal in the form of invited expert articles or special reports. The Editorial Committee also attaches great importance to subjects related to continuing medical education, the implementation of guidelines and cost effectiveness in cardiology.
