Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the impact of atrial fibrillation (AF) on symptoms and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among a large group of patients in Scandinavia, focusing on gender and age differences.
- Results show women report more symptoms and have a greater negative impact on HRQoL, while older patients mainly experienced more negative influences in specific areas.
- The findings highlight the importance of considering gender-related differences in care and management of AF, emphasizing the need for gender-specific patient-reported outcomes measures.
Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the safety and effectiveness of catheter ablation for tachyarrhythmias using data from Swedish national registries, focusing on over 26,000 patients from 2006 to 2015.* ! -
- Key findings showed a rising incidence of ablation procedures for atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, and premature ventricular contractions, alongside a decrease in procedural times and fluoroscopy usage over the years.* ! -
- Despite the complexity of the procedures increasing, the rate of adverse events remained low, and the efficacy, particularly for atrial fibrillation, showed improvement.* !
