8 kwi 2024 · Life expectancy after cardiac ablation depends on a range of factors, such as whether the procedure causes complications. Learn more here.
3 dni temu · Sukarai and colleagues reviewed long-term outcomes of concomitant surgical ablation in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing cardiac surgery. This was performed by meta-analysis, encompassing 9 randomized controlled trials and 15 observational studies with over 40,000 patients [1]. The authors found that at a median follow-up of 62 months, surgical ablation was associated with a ...
29 paź 2019 · The early mortality rate after CA of AF is 0.46%, with approximately 50% of deaths occurring during rehospitalizations within the first 30 days of the index hospitalization. The strongest predictors of early death are a procedural complication and HF, suggesting that early identification and treatment of a complication and HF might decrease the ...
Concomitant AF ablation significantly improved the overall 5-year survival rates and it improved survival rates in three separate groups of patients, those undergoing isolated CABG, Valve Surgery, and combined CABG/Valve Surgery . These three studies by Damiano’s group, Suwalski’s Polish Registry, and Iribarne’s New England consortium ...
8 lut 2023 · There were 3 atrioesophageal fistulas: 2 survived with combined cardiac/gastrointestinal surgery and 1 died without surgery. There were 14 strokes (0.19%) in the 30 days postablation; 11 in the first 48 hours, 1 of which was fatal.
26 lip 2016 · Ablation of AF has evolved from a concept difficult to imagine in the early 1990s to a rare, very lengthy procedure in the late 1990s 5 to now a generally safe and reasonably successful procedure. 1, 6, 7 Information on the care of patients with AF undergoing ablation has accumulated over the last several years; thus, a comprehensive review is r...
22 gru 2021 · Four-year event rates for ablation versus drug therapy across age groups, respectively, were 3.2% versus 7.8%, 7.8% versus 9.6%, and 14.8% versus 9.0%. For every 10-year increase in age, the primary outcome aHR increased (ie, less favorable to ablation) an average of 27% (interaction P value=0.215).
