Evaluation of risk factors for long-term atrial fibrillation development in patients undergoing typical atrial flutter ablation: a multicenter pilot study.
Background: Atrial flutter (AFL) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are the most commonly detected supraventricular arrhythmias and share similar pathophysiological mechanisms. After the successful ablation of AFL, AF frequently occurs in the long-term follow-up. As emphasized in some studies, certain mechanisms seem to predispose to the development of AF in AFL patients, and approximately 20% of these patients have accompanying AFL.
Purpose: We aimed to analyze independent risk factors that predict the development of AF in patients who underwent typical AFL ablation.
Methods: This was a multicenter, cross-sectional, and retrospective study. A total of 442 patients who underwent typical AFL ablation at three different centers between January 1, 2018 and January 1, 2022 were included retrospectively. After the ablation procedure the patients were divided into those who developed AF and those who did not. The patients were followed up for an average of 12 (4-20) months. In the post-procedural period, atrial arrhythmias were investigated with 24‑h Holter and ECG at 1 month, 6 months, and 12 months and then at 6‑month intervals thereafter.
Results: Overall, AF developed in 206 (46.6%) patients in the long-term follow-up. Age, hypertension (HT), obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), previous cerebrovascular accident (CVA), left atrium anteroposterior diameter, severe mitral regurgitation, hemoglobin, blood glucose, and HbA1c values were found to be significant in univariable analysis. According to multivariable analysis, HT (p = 0.014; HR: 1.483 [1.084-2.030]), OSAS (p = 0.008; HR: 1.520 [1.117-2.068]) and previous CVA (p = 0.038; HR: 1.749 [1.031-2.968]) were independently associated with the development of AF in AFL patients who underwent ablation procedure.
Conclusion: In the present study, we found that HT, OSAS, and previous CVA were independently correlated with the development of AF in the long-term follow-up of patients who underwent typical AFL ablation. We consider that AFL patients with such risk factors should be followed up closely following cavotricuspid isthmus ablation for the development of AF.
期刊介绍：
Herz is the high-level journal for further education for all physicians interested in cardiology. The individual issues of the journal each deal with specific topics and comprise review articles in English and German written by competent and esteemed authors. They provide up-to-date and comprehensive information concerning the speciality dealt with in the issue. Due to the fact that all relevant aspects of the pertinent topic of an issue are considered, an overview of the current status and progress in cardiology is presented. Reviews and original articles round off the spectrum of information provided.
