AF patients with vascular disease have a higher risk of all-cause mortality, stroke/systemic embolism, and major bleeding than those without vascular disease.
Does the presence of vascular disease increase the risk of all-cause mortality, stroke/systemic embolism, and major bleeding in patients with atrial fibrillation?
The presence of vascular disease in patients with atrial fibrillation is associated with a higher risk of mortality, thromboembolism, and bleeding, highlighting the need for holistic risk factor management.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
AF patients with vascular disease are at a higher risk of ACM, SSE and major bleeding compared to patients without vascular disease, indicating that patients with this combination require careful and holistic management in terms of risk factor control and treatment of the condition. Additional research is required to further characterise the relationship between the two.
