Increasing Physical Activity After ICD Implantation May Reduce Deaths
For Medicare beneficiaries with implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs), physical activity (PA) is associated with a reduction in all-cause mortality.
Arrythmia
Rates of Adverse Events Lower With Apixaban for AF in Older Adults
For older adults with atrial fibrillation, apixaban is associated with lower rates of adverse events than warfarin across all frailty levels.
AHF With AFib Presentation in ED Associated With Worse MACE Outcomes
Study investigators assessed the impact of acute heart failure on long-term adverse outcomes among patients who present to the emergency department with atrial fibrillation.
Factors Predictive of Outcomes in Comorbid Atrial Fibrillation and Heart Failure
Investigators evaluated mortality associated with atrial fibrillation in heart failure.
Marine Omega-3 Fatty Acid, Vitamin D Do Not Cut Risk for A-Fib
Neither marine omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, nor vitamin D3 are associated with a reduction in the risk for incident atrial fibrillation.
ACC Policy Statement on COVID-19 Vaccination Prioritization Based on CVD Considerations
ACC policy position statement on prioritization and allocation of COVID-19 vaccine focuses on cardiovascular disease.
Cryoballoon Ablation as Initial Treatment for Paroxysmal AF?
Rates of atrial tachyarrhythmia recurrence were found to be lower in patients receiving catheter cryoballoon ablation vs antiarrhythmic pharmacotherapy as first-line intervention for treatment-naive, symptomatic, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
Updated AHA Guidelines for CPR and Emergency Cardiovascular Care
AHA issued Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiovascular Care.
Arrhythmia-Free Survival After Catheter Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation Comparable for HFpHF and HFrEF
Arrhythmia-free survival after catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation was comparable in patients with heart failure with preserved and reduced ejection fraction.
Multichannel Smartwatch ECG vs Standard ECG for the Detection of ST-Segment Changes in ACS
