Abstract

Comprehensive comparisons of safety (measured by bleeding risk) between multiple novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs and warfarin) in the peri-procedural period of catheter ablation (CA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) are rare. MEDLINE, EMBASE, and COCHRANE LIBRARY were searched up to February 2015 by two reviewers independently. Predefined inclusion criteria identified 24 studies which were included in the analysis. Data were extracted by two researchers, and a network meta-analysis was conducted in R with R2WinBugS package, within Bayesian framework. Pooled odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were summarized to evaluate the bleeding risks of three novel anticoagulants (dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban) in AF patients undergoing catheter ablation (CA). With respect to total bleeding risk, no significant difference was observed between dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban, and vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) by mixed-treatment comparison. The similar results were seen in the direct comparison. While dabigatran was associated with a lower rate of minor bleeding in comparison to VKAs (OR = 0.67 with 95%CI 0.49-0.93). Risks of bleeding with dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban, and VKAs were similar in peri-procedural period of ...Continue Reading

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Atrial Filbrillation

Atrial fibrillation refers to the abnormal heart rhythm characterized by rapid and irregular beating of the atria. Here is the latest research.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
