UNLABELLED
To estimate the incidence of new-onset atrial fibrillation in critically ill patients.
DESIGN
Prospective cohort.
SETTING
Medical-surgical ICU.
SUBJECTS
Consecutive patients without a history of atrial fibrillation but with atrial fibrillation risk factors.
INTERVENTIONS
Electrocardiogram patch monitor until discharge from hospital or up to 14 days.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
A total of 249 participants (median age of 71 yr [interquartile range] 64-78 yr; 35% female) completed the study protocol of which 158 (64%) were admitted to ICU for medical illness, 78 (31%) following noncardiac surgery, and 13 (5%) with trauma. Median Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score was 16 (interquartile range, 12-22). Median duration of patch electrocardiogram monitoring, ICU, and hospital lengths of stay were 6 (interquartile range, 3-12), 4 (interquartile range, 2-8), and 11 days (interquartile range, 5-23 d), respectively.Atrial fibrillation ≥ 30 seconds was detected by the patch in 44 participants (17.7%), and three participants (1.2%) had atrial fibrillation detected clinically after patch removal, resulting in an overall atrial fibrillation incidence of 18.9% (95% CI, 14.2-24.3%).Total duration of atrial fibrillation ranged from 53 seconds to the entire monitoring time. The proportion of participants with ≥1 episode(s) of ≥6 minute, ≥1 hour, ≥12 hour and ≥24 hour duration was 14.8%, 13.2%, 7.0%, and 5.3%, respectively. The clinical team recognized only 70% of atrial fibrillation cases that were detected by the electrocardiogram patch.
CONCLUSIONS
Among patients admitted to an ICU, the incidence of new-onset atrial fibrillation is approximately one in five, although approximately one-third of cases are not recognized by the clinical team.
未标注
评估危重症患者新发房颤的发生率。
设计
前瞻性队列研究。
地点
内科-外科重症监护病房。
研究对象
无房颤病史但有房颤危险因素的连续患者。
干预措施
使用心电图贴片监测直至出院或最长14天。
测量指标及主要结果
共有249名参与者(年龄中位数71岁[四分位间距]64 - 78岁;35%为女性)完成研究方案,其中158名(64%)因内科疾病入住重症监护病房,78名(31%)接受非心脏手术后入住,13名(5%)因创伤入住。急性生理与慢性健康状况评价II评分中位数为16(四分位间距,12 - 22)。贴片心电图监测的中位数时长、重症监护病房住院时长及住院总时长分别为6天(四分位间距,3 - 12天)、4天(四分位间距,2 - 8天)和11天(四分位间距,5 - 23天)。贴片检测到44名参与者(17.7%)出现持续≥30秒的房颤,3名参与者(1.2%)在移除贴片后临床检测到房颤,总体房颤发生率为18.9%(95%可信区间,14.2 - 24.3%)。房颤总时长从53秒至整个监测时间不等。持续时间≥6分钟、≥1小时、≥12小时及≥24小时的发作次数≥1次的参与者比例分别为14.8%、13.2%、7.0%和5.3%。临床团队仅识别出心电图贴片检测到的房颤病例中的70%。
结论
在入住重症监护病房的患者中,新发房颤的发生率约为五分之一,尽管约三分之一的病例未被临床团队识别。
