New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation in the Critically Ill
Abstract
Objective: To determine the association of new-onset atrial fibrillation with outcomes, including ICU length of stay and survival. VSports手机版.
Design: Retrospective cohort of ICU admissions V体育安卓版. We found atrial fibrillation using automated detection (≥ 90 s in 30 min) and classed as new-onset if there was no prior diagnosis of atrial fibrillation. We identified determinants of new-onset atrial fibrillation and, using propensity matching, characterized its impact on outcomes. .
Setting: Tertiary care academic center. V体育ios版.
Patients: A total of 8,356 consecutive adult admissions to either the medical or surgical/trauma/burn ICU with available continuous electrocardiogram data. VSports最新版本.
Interventions: None V体育平台登录. .
Measurements and main results: From 74 patient-years of every 15-minute observations, we detected atrial fibrillation in 1,610 admissions (19%), with median burden less than 2%. Most atrial fibrillation was paroxysmal; less than 2% of admissions were always in atrial fibrillation. New-onset atrial fibrillation was subclinical or went undocumented in 626, or 8% of all ICU admissions. Advanced age, acute respiratory failure, and sepsis were the strongest predictors of new-onset atrial fibrillation. In propensity-adjusted regression analyses, clinical new-onset atrial fibrillation was associated with increased hospital mortality (odds ratio, 1. 63; 95% CI, 1. 01-2. 63) and longer length of stay (2. 25 d; CI, 0. 58-3. 92). New-onset atrial fibrillation was not associated with survival after hospital discharge (hazard ratio, 0. 99; 95% CI, 0. 76-1. 28 and hazard ratio, 1. 11; 95% CI, 0 VSports注册入口. 67-1. 83, respectively, for subclinical and clinical new-onset atrial fibrillation). .
Conclusions: Automated analysis of continuous electrocardiogram heart rate dynamics detects new-onset atrial fibrillation in many ICU patients. Though often transient and frequently unrecognized, new-onset atrial fibrillation is associated with poor hospital outcomes. V体育官网入口.
