European Society of Cardiology methodology for the development of quality indicators for the quantification of cardiovascular care and outcomes

Suleman Aktaa et al.

Summary: This paper describes the methodology used for the development of quality indicators (QIs) by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) to evaluate cardiovascular care. The four-step process includes identifying key domains of care, constructing candidate QIs, selecting a final set of QIs, and conducting a feasibility assessment.

Quality indicators for the care and outcomes of adults with atrial fibrillation

Elena Arbelo et al.

Summary: This paper aimed to develop quality indicators (QIs) for evaluating the quality of care and outcomes for adults with atrial fibrillation (AF). Six domains of care were identified, and a total of 17 main and 17 secondary QIs were selected to cover these domains, with the expectation that implementing these QIs will improve the quality of AF care.

Cryoablation or Drug Therapy for Initial Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation

Jason G. Andrade et al.

Summary: In patients with symptomatic, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, catheter cryoballoon ablation was associated with a significantly lower rate of atrial fibrillation recurrence compared to antiarrhythmic drug therapy. The ablation group also had better outcomes in terms of atrial tachyarrhythmia occurrence and atrial fibrillation burden.

Predicting patient-level new-onset atrial fibrillation from population-based nationwide electronic health records: protocol of FIND-AF for developing a precision medicine prediction model using artificial intelligence

Ramesh Nadarajah et al.

Summary: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiovascular health issue that can be managed with oral anticoagulation to reduce the risk of thromboembolic stroke. Aiming to develop an accurate predictive model for new-onset AF, researchers plan to utilize deep learning techniques and real-time data to create a personalized risk assessment model.

Cohort profile: the ESC EURObservational Research Programme Atrial Fibrillation III (AF III) Registry

Tatjana S. Potpara et al.

Summary: The EORP-AF III Registry aims to identify contemporary patterns in AF management, assess compliance with ESC AF Guidelines, and compare outcomes of guideline-adherent versus non-adherent strategies. By prospectively collecting data from AF patients and analyzing them comprehensively, the registry provides insights into AF management.
