Doroteia Silva: Early Rhythm Control Reduces AF Recurrence in Critically Ill Patients
Doroteia Silva, Cardiology and Intensive Care Consultant at Santa Maria University Hospital, posted on LinkedIn about a recent article she and her colleagues co-authored, adding:
”Important data from our work:
- In critically ill patients, new-onset AF was frequently associated with post-ICU discharge recurrence over a 10-month follow-up.
- Early rhythm control strategies were associated with lower in-hospital and post-discharge AF recurrence.
- Individualised anticoagulation appeared safe and was not associated with increased bleeding.”
