Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
Background: The method described provides a rational means for determining whether to institute chronic anticoagulation to prevent stroke in patients with chronic atrial fibrillation under a variety of clinical circumstances. Summary of Comment: The concept of expected value is used in conjunction with data from clinical studies to define the net value of anticoagulation to the patient. A full ...
متن کاملBaroreflex sensitivity in patients with Takayasu's aortitis.
Takayasu's aortitis is an arterial inflammatory disease of arteries of unknown etiology. Fainting is a common symptom and has been attributed to ypersensitivity of the baroreflex. We studied baroreflex sensitivity in 11 patients with Takayasu's aortitis and compared it with that of eight control subjects of comparable age. Baroreflex sensitivity was assessed by determining the slope of a regres...
متن کاملRestoring Sinus Rhythm Improves Baroreflex Function in Patients With Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
BACKGROUND Studies have suggested that patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) have impairment in the baroreflex. It is not clear whether these findings are the result of the associated comorbid conditions or the arrhythmia itself. We hypothesized that AF is associated with impairment in baroreflex function and that the arrhythmia itself is a contributing factor. METHODS AND RESULTS Twenty-fou...
متن کاملInvestigation of the relationship between pharmacological knowledge of anticoagulants with medication adherence in the elderly patients with atrial fibrillation
Introduction and Aim: In the elderly, the rate of adherence to the medication regimen and the rate of remembering how to correctly prescribe medication is low due to old age and memory loss, which leads to poor therapeutic results. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between anticoagulants knowledge and adherence to treatment in elderly cardiac patients with atrial fibrillat...
