Abstract

BACKGROUND: Whether atrial fibrillation (AF) pattern or timing of AF therapy modifies the effectiveness of early rhythm control (ERC) is not known. OBJECTIVES: This study sought to compare clinical characteristics and outcomes in patients presenting with different AF patterns on ERC vs usual care. METHODS: The effects of ERC were compared in first-diagnosed AF (FDAF), paroxysmal AF (paroxAF), and persistent AF (persAF) in this prespecified analysis of the EAST-AFNET 4 (Early treatment of atrial fibrillation for stroke prevention) trial. Associations between AF pattern and primary outcomes (first primary outcome: cardiovascular death, stroke, and hospitalization for heart failure and acute coronary syndrome; second primary outcome: nights spent in hospital per year) were compared over a mean follow-up of 5.1 years. Changes in health-related quality of life were assessed by the EQ-5D. RESULTS: FDAF patients (n = 1,048, enrolled 7 days after diagnosing AF) were slightly older (71 years of age, 48.0% female) than patients with paroxAF (n = 994, 70 years of age, 50.0% female) and persAF (n = 743, 70 years of age, 38.0% female). ERC reduced the primary outcome in all 3 AF patterns. Hospitalizations for acute coronary syndrome were highest in FDAF (incidence rate ratio [IRR]: 1.50; 95% CI: 0.83-2.69; P for interaction = 0.032) compared with paroxAF (IRR: 0.64; 95% CI: 0.32-1.25) and persAF (IRR: 0.50; 95% CI: 0.25-1.00). FDAF patients spent more nights in hospital (IRR: 1.38; 95% CI: 1.12-1.70; P for interaction = 0.004) than paroxAF (IRR: 0.84; 95% CI: 0.67-1.03), and persAF (IRR: 1.02; 95% CI: 0.80-1.30) patients. ERC improved health-related quality of life (EQ-5D score) in patients with paroxAF and persAF but not in patients with FDAF (P = 0.019). CONCLUSIONS: ERC reduces the first primary composite outcome in all AF patterns. Patients with FDAF are at high risk for hospitalization and acute coronary syndrome, particularly on ERC.
