Baseline CHA 2 DS 2 ‐VASc score and prognosis in octogenarians with non‐ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome

2021

Background CHA2DS2-VASc Score is widely used to predict thromboembolic risk in patients with Atrial Fibrillation (AF). We sought to study if this score predicts outcomes in elderly patients with Non-ST segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndromes (NSTEACS). Methods The multicenter LONGEVO-SCA prospective registry included 532 unselected patients with NSTEACS aged ≥80 years. Data to calculate CHA2DS2-VASc Score were available in 523 patients (98.3%). They were classified according to CHA2DS2-VASc Score: group 1 (score ≤ 4), and 2 (5-9). We studied outcomes in terms of mortality or readmission at 6 months follow-up. Results A total of 266 patients (51%) had a high CHA2DS2-VASc Score (group 2). …

Competitive interaction between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and CHA2DS2-VASc score in predicting incident atrial fibrillation

2018

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, and an emerging risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF). CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc scores are significantly associated with incident AF independently of other risk factors. The aim of this study was to demonstrate a possible interaction between COPD and CHA2DS2-VASc in predicting incident AF. Methods: This observational prospective cohort study included 4322 Caucasians with cardiovascular risk factors, stratified by CHA2DS2-VASc score (> 2 vs < 2) and presence/absence of COPD. To detect AF appearance, patients underwent, every 6 months, physical examination, standard 12‑lead electrocardiog…

Carotid plaque detection improves the predictve value of CHA2DS2-VASc score in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrilation: The ARAPACIS Study

2017

Abstract Background and aims Vascular disease (VD), as assessed by history of myocardial infarction or peripheral artery disease or aortic plaque, increases stroke risk in atrial fibrillation (AF), and is a component of risk assessment using the CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score. We investigated if systemic atherosclerosis as detected by ultrasound carotid plaque (CP) could improve the predictive value of the CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score. Methods We analysed data from the ARAPACIS study, an observational study including 2027 Italian patients with non-valvular AF, in whom CP was detected using Doppler Ultrasonography. Results VD was reported in 351 (17.3%) patients while CP was detected in 16.6% patients. Ad…

Risk Stratification Using the CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc Score in Takotsubo Syndrome: Data From the Takotsubo Italian Network

2017

Background The CHA 2 DS 2 ‐VASc score predicts stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation and has been reported to have a prognostic role even in acute coronary syndrome patients. The Takotsubo syndrome is a condition that mimics acute coronary syndrome and may present several complications including stroke. We sought to assess the ability of CHA 2 DS 2 ‐VASc score to predict adverse events in Takotsubo syndrome patients. Methods and Results Overall, 371 Takotsubo syndrome patients were enrolled in a prospective registry. Patients were divided into 3 groups according to the CHA 2 DS 2 ‐VASc score: Group A (≤1), B (2–3), and C (≥4). The median CHA 2 DS 2 ‐VASc score was 3 (interquartile ra…

0128: CHA2DS2-VASc score estimates in-hospital mortality beyond GRACE score after acute myocardial infarction

2016

International audience; Background and aimsCHA2DS2VASc score have recently been suggested to predict death in patients with Atrial Fibrillation (AF). In acute myocardial infarction (AMI), silent AF is more common than symptomatic AF and associated with poor prognosis. In patients with AMI, we aimed to assess the distribution of CHA2DS2VASc score in patients with silent or symptomatic AF and the association of the score with mortality.Methods849 consecutive AMI were prospectively analyzed by continuous ECG monitoring (CEM) 30 sec. Symptomatic AF was defined as any AF occurring on ECG during the hospital stay, resulting in clinical symptoms or need for urgent cardioversion. The population was…
