标题:Factors associated with bleeding events during catheter ablation with uninterrupted periprocedural edoxaban for atrial fibrillation: a subanalysis of the KYU-RABLE study
摘要:Background
Data are limited on patient background characteristics associated with catheter ablation (CA)-related bleeding events in Japanese patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation receiving uninterrupted periprocedural edoxaban. This subanalysis of the KYU-RABLE study focused on univariate and multivariate analyses to identify correlations between bleeding events and baseline patient demographics and CA-related characteristics.
Methods
Patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) enrolled from the KYU-RABLE study were included in the study. We performed univariate and multivariate analyses to investigate the correlation of major, minor, and clinically relevant non-major bleeding events with the patient baseline data at enrollment, and with CA procedures.
Results
A total of 513 NVAF patients were included in the full analysis set. Univariate analysis showed that the incidence of the bleeding events was higher in patients with HAS-BLED score ≥ 3 compared with those with a score < 3 (odds ratio [OR
