What are some of the environmental factors that have been identified as contributing to atrial fibrillation, apart from COVID? Why are we picking up more cases of atrial fibrillation? Are patients becoming more symptomatic? Obstructive sleep apnoea doesn't cause atrial fibrillation, but can it make it permanent? How can the pulmonary veins cause a cardiac arrhythmia?

Assessing Recurrence Following Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation   Guest: Nicholas Tan, M.D., M.S. Host: Anthony H. Kashou, M.D.   Pulsed field ablation has been rapidly adopted across the United States since FDA approval was granted 1 year ago, due to its excellent acute efficacy, favorable safety profile, and fast workflow. However, recurrences post-ablation are comparable to that of previously established modalities, making this a significant hurdle that has yet to be overcome. Changes to mapping/ablation strategies, updates to PFA parameters, autonomic modulation, and combination modality ablations (PFA/RFA) offer some avenues for improvement   Topics Discussed:  What is pulsed field ablation (PFA) and how does it differ from previously established modalities of ablation such as radiofrequency and cryoablation? What are the recurrence rates post-PFA and how do they compare with other modalities? In patients who undergo redo ablations following an index PFA procedure, what are the most common causes (i.e. reconnection of pulmonary veins versus new sites)? How do you think PFA will evolve in the coming years   Connect with Mayo Clinic's Cardiovascular Continuing Medical Education online at https://cveducation.mayo.edu or on Twitter @MayoClinicCV and @MayoCVservices.

Aging-US
Blood Thinners Called Factor Xa Inhibitors Lower Heart Risk in Elderly with Atrial Fibrillation

Aging-US

BUFFALO, NY — May 14, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published in Aging (Aging-US) Volume 17, Issue 4, on April 10, 2025, titled “Impact of Factor Xa inhibitors on cardiovascular events in older patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.” In this study, first author Masahiko Takahashi and corresponding author Keisuke Okawa led a research team from Kagawa Prefectural Central Hospital and Hyogo Medical University that investigated whether Factor Xa inhibitors (Xa-Is)—a type of blood thinner—can reduce the risk of heart-related complications in patients over 80 with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). The study found that patients using Xa-Is experienced significantly fewer cardiovascular problems than those on other anticoagulants. This finding is especially relevant, as older adults face a high risk of both stroke and heart disease. Atrial fibrillation is a common heart rhythm disorder, particularly in the elderly, that increases the risk of blood clots, heart failure, and stroke. Anticoagulants are often prescribed to prevent clots, but not all types have the same effects on heart health. This study focused on comparing Xa-Is—specifically rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban—with commonly used drugs such as warfarin and dabigatran. Researchers followed more than 1,000 patients aged 80 and above for up to five years to assess the long-term impact of these medications on cardiovascular outcomes. Patients who used Xa-Is had significantly lower rates of heart failure, artery disease, and cardiovascular death. The risk of cardiovascular problems in the Xa-I group was less than half that of those on non-Xa-I medications. These benefits remained even after adjusting for factors like age, existing heart conditions, and kidney function. Additionally, stroke and all-cause death rates were notably lower in the Xa-I group. “Xa-Is may be useful for not only anticoagulation but also the prevention of cardiovascular events in very old patients with NVAF.” What makes Xa-Is different, according to the researchers, is their ability to inhibit a specific biological pathway—known as Factor Xa–PAR2—that contributes to inflammation, fibrosis, and damage in blood vessels and heart tissue. This effect extends beyond their traditional role in preventing blood clots. Although the study was conducted at a single medical center in Japan, its rigorous design and long follow-up period enhance the reliability of the findings for real-world clinical decision-making. While further studies, especially across multiple centers, are needed to confirm the full range of benefits, this study strongly suggests that Xa-Is may offer broader cardiovascular protection for very old patients. The findings could influence how clinicians choose blood thinners for elderly individuals with atrial fibrillation, potentially improving both survival and quality of life in this growing population.

Middeldorp, MPH, PhD, of the University Medical Centre Groningen & University of Adelaide, is joined by Andrea Robinson, MSN, ACNP, from Riverside Methodist Hospital, OhioHealth, and Jeroen ML Hendriks, PhD, RN, of Maastricht University Medical Centre, in this episode. The AF-EduCare trial investigated whether targeted patient education (delivered in-person or online) could reduce unplanned cardiovascular events in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). The study found that while education improved patient knowledge, medication adherence, and risk factor awareness, it did not significantly reduce cardiovascular hospitalizations, emergency visits, or mortality compared to standard care. However, subgroup analyses suggested that younger patients, those without heart failure, and asymptomatic AF patients might benefit more from in-person education. The findings highlight that while education enhances patient engagement, comprehensive medical management and timely clinical interventions remain the key drivers of improved cardiovascular outcomes in AF care.  Join us for this in-depth conversation about the trial.   https://www.hrsonline.org/education/TheLead https://academic.oup.com/europace/article/27/1/euae211/7964628 Host Disclosure(s): M.

In this standout episode of Next Steps 4 Seniors: Conversations on Aging, we’re bringing back an audience favorite: our eye-opening interview with Nurse Practitioner Liz Jackson from Henry Ford Hospital. Liz breaks down the B.E.F.A.S.T. method for spotting stroke symptoms early, dives into the different types of strokes, and explains why timing is everything when it comes to treatment. We also tackle the red flags of heart attacks, the sneaky signs of vascular disease (yes, even leg cramping!), and how managing conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes can be game-changers. Early detection = lives saved. This episode is packed with info that could protect you or someone you love. Listen now on your favorite podcast platform!

For this episode we are joined by EBM guru, Dr. Brian Locke, who deftly breaks down all of our statistics questions. Is half dose DOAC as good as full dose DOAC for preventing VTE, and does it reduce bleeding risk? Can procalcitonin reduce duration of antibiotics for infections without compromising mortality rates? Can LLMs like GPT-4 help physicians manage patients better? Can reinforcement learning models predict when to start vasopressin in patients with septic shock? What is the risk of resuming anticoagulation in patients with atrial fibrillation and prior intracerebral hemorrhage? Is high flow nasal cannula as good as non-invasive ventilation for different types of respiratory failure? We answer all these questions and more!Half Dose DOAC for Long Term VTE Prevention (RENOVE)Biomarker-Guided Antibiotic Duration (ADAPT-Sepsis)GPT-4 Assistance for Physician PerformanceOptimal Vasopressin Initiation for Septic Shock (OVISS)DOACs for A fib after ICH (PRESTIGE-AF)High Flow Nasal Cannula vs NIV for Respiratory Failure (RENOVATE)Music from Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/soundroll/dope License code: NP8HLP5WKGKXFW2R

This interview features JACC Associate Editor Neha Pagidipati, MD, FACC, speaking with Maria Pabon, MD and Muthu Vaduganathan, MD about their study on finerenone's role in reducing new-onset atrial fibrillation in patients with cardio-kidney metabolic disease. The discussion covers the methodology and findings of a pooled analysis from three major clinical trials, highlighting finerenone's 17% risk reduction in atrial fibrillation, its potential mechanisms, and the need for greater diversity in clinical trial populations. They also touch on comparative evidence with other mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists and the broader implications for heart failure management.
