Advanced interatrial block predicts ineffective cardioversion of atrial fibrillation: a FinCV2 cohort study by Arto Relander, Tapio Hellman, Tuija Vasankari, Ilpo Nuotio, Juhani K. E. Airaksinen, Tuomas Kiviniemi

“…AIAB was an independent predictor for CV failure (OR 4.51, 95%CI 1.76–11.56, p = .002), AF recurrence (OR 2.93, 95%CI 1.43–5.99, p = .003) and ineffective CV (OR 3.87, 95%CI 2.04–7.36, p < .001).Conclusion AIAB predicted CV failure, AF recurrence as well as their composite. This study presents an easy electrocardiographic tool for the identification of patients with persistent AF who might not benefit from an elective CV in the future.KEY MESSAGESInteratrial blocks are very common in patients with atrial fibrillation.Advanced interatrial block predicts ineffective cardioversion.…”
