During its Annual Conference, HRS 2024, the HeartRhythm Society (HRS) announced findings from three new studies demonstrating the safety and efficacy of pulsed field ablation (PFA), a nonthermal ablation treatment for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). director of electrophysiology, Mount Sinai Fuster HeartHospital , New York.
will have AF, an irregular and potentially dangerous heartrhythm. ii The DEFINE AFib clinical study enrolled 973 patients using an app-based enrollment feature and characterized the impact of AF burden on patient outcomes and quality of life. will have AF, an irregular and potentially dangerous heartrhythm.
Four heartrhythm organizations from around the globe developed the statement. It is also published in HeartRhythm , the official journal of the HRS, Journal of Arrhythmia , the official journal of the APHRS, and Journal of Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology , the official journal of the LAHRS.
As a result, healthcare faces rising expenses from frequent emergency room visits, lengthy hospital stays, costly procedures like stent placements and bypass surgeries, as well as the long-term management of chronic conditions like heart failure (HF). These costs represent a massive portion of total health expenditures.
Dr. JoAnn Lindenfeld of Vanderbilt University presented analysis showing that patients with Barostim + GDMT had sustained and significant improvements in quality-of-life scores (MLWHF and EQ-5D) and many subdomains of these scores (e.g., See more details at TCTMD. versus patients on GDMT alone.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heartrhythm disorder in clinical practice. It worsens the quality of life of patients, leads to an increase in the mortality rate because of its association with a high risk of thromboembolic complications. However, most research in this area has focused on hospital patients.
In electrophysiology, innovation is king, but it is often incremental, and it almost always lacks rationale, comprehensive clinical documentation and relevance for hospitals that try to balance the increasing costs of new technology with increasing demand and reimbursement that just can’t keep pace.
Maron, MD “Our findings provide enthusiasm that a novel drug therapy with ninerafaxstat may provide nonobstructive HCM patients an opportunity to achieve a better quality of life by decreasing symptom burden and improving exercise capacity,” said Martin S. The safety and tolerability of the drug in this phase 2 trial was excellent.
