Influence of gender on prognosis of atrial fibrillation patients after left atrial appendage occlusion
To explore the influence of gender on the prognosis of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO).
Methods
2
All non-valvular AF patients who were admitted in our hospital and underwent LAAO from August 2014 to August 2021 were enrolled and grouped according to gender. Their general information
including gender
age
comorbid underlying diseases
and results of transthoracic echocardiography and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) were collected. The incidences of device-related thrombosis (DRT)
pericardial tamponade
stroke
bleeding
hospitalization for heart failure
and cardiac death were recorded during follow-up. The influence of gender on the prognosis of these patients was analyzed.
Results
2
There were totally 673 patients with non-valvular AF were enrolled
including 366 males and 307 females
at a mean age of 68.2±9.4 years. When compared with the male patients
the female ones had a higher CHA2DS2-VASc score (
P
<
0.01)
but smaller proportions of history of stroke
average compression ratio of occluders
and incidence of residual shunt (
<
3 mm) after occlusion (
P
<
0.05). In 45~60 d after surgery
TEE revealed that there were 17 cases of DRT
including 8 males (2.2%) and 9 females (2.9%)
though without statistical difference between the groups. Among the 17 DRT cases
1 experienced stroke
and the incidence of stroke was 5.9% in those with DRT and 0.5% without. There were 4 cases of postoperative pericardial tamponade
including 1 in the male group and 3 in the female group (no significant difference)
and all of them were improved after pericardial puncture and fluid extraction. During the follow-up period of 40.2±20.5 months
no obvious differences were observed between the 2 groups in terms of stroke
bleeding
hospitalization for heart failure
and cardiogenic death.
Conclusion
2
Gender shows no significant effect on the prognosis of patients with non-valvular AF after LAAO.
