Atrial flutter and fibrillation in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension in the ASPIRE registry: Comparison of rate versus rhythm control approaches
2023, International Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :Restoration of sinus rhythm was associated with improvement in ISWD in 78% and in FC in 41% of patients. These data are consistent with previous reports [3–10]. For example, in the study of Olsson et al [7], mean 6-min walk test distance dropped from 362 to 258 m with the onset of arrhythmia and increased back up to 345 m after cardioversion, whilst in Wen et al [8] atrial arrhythmias were associated with clinical worsening in 97.5% of the patients, whilst all of them improved after sinus rhythm was restored.
A Novel Factor in Determining the Risk of Ischemic Cerebrovascular Events in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: Pulmonary Hypertension
2022, Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular DiseasesCitation Excerpt :Notwithstanding therapeutic approaches, PH continues an incurable illness. Increased right-sided filling pressures resulting in the right atrium and ventricle mechanical stretch raise the risk of arrhythmic events such as atrial fibrillation (AF).3 Moreover, PH is associated with paradoxical embolism and AF, independent stroke risk factors.4
