What question did this study set out to answer?

This research aims to evaluate the effects of continued caffeinated coffee consumption versus abstinence on the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after cardioversion.

March 5, 2026

After cardioversion in AF, continued caffeinated coffee consumption vs. abstinence reduced AF or atrial flutter recurrence at 6 mo

Key Result

Continued caffeinated coffee consumption after cardioversion in AF reduced AF or atrial flutter recurrence compared to abstinence at 6 months.

Key Points

This research aims to evaluate the effects of continued caffeinated coffee consumption versus abstinence on the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after cardioversion.
Follow-up at 6 months post-cardioversion
Comparison of recurrence rates between coffee consumers and abstainers
Statistical analysis of recurrence outcomes
Caffeinated coffee consumption is associated with reduced recurrence of atrial fibrillation or flutter
Abstinence from coffee correlates with higher recurrence rates
Findings indicate a possible protective effect of caffeinated coffee

Main Result

Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
