Epidemiology of Atrial Fibrillation in the US: Rising Prevalence of the Disease As of 2010, 2.66 million Americans are estimated to have AF1 Lifetime risk for developing AF is high2 1 in 4 for men and women aged 40 years Prevalence increases rapidly with age3 3.8% for persons 60 years old 9% for persons 80 years old AF prevalence is predicted to increase by 2.5 fold by 2050 AF affects 1 in 25 adults aged >60 years and 1 in 10 adults >80 years3 Predicted Prevalence of AF1 2000 Year 16 14 0 5.1 5.6 6.1 6.8 7.5 8.4 9.4 10.3 11.1 11.7 12.1 5.1 5.9 6.7 7.7 8.9 10.2 11.7 13.1 14.3 15.2 15.9 Lloyd-Jones DM et al.

Independent Risk Factors for Atrial Fibrillation* Framingham Heart Study *2-Year pooled logistic regression; †AF was diagnosed in 226 men in 16,529 follow-up person-examinations; ‡AF was diagnosed in 244 women in 23,763 follow-up person-examinations; §Valvular heart disease was a significantly more potent risk factor for the development of atrial fibrillation in women than in men. DM = diabetes mellitus; HTN = hypertension; MI = myocardial infarction; CHF = congestive heart failure. Benjamin EJ et al. JAMA. 1994;271:840-844.

Economic Impact and Public Health Burden of Hospitalizations in Those With Atrial Fibrillation Significant public health burden; total AF-attributable costs estimated at 6.65 billion1-5 Annual cost per patient ~$47005 Associated with more hospitalizations than any other arrhythmia6 Approximately one third for cardiac rhythm disturbances1 Increased hospitalizations impact quality of life and health care costs2,7 1.

795,000 strokes occur annually in the US (from all causes)1 ~185,000 strokes occur in people who have already had a previous stroke1 Patients with AF have a 5-fold higher risk of stroke Over 87% of strokes are thromboembolic Strokes in Atrial Fibrillation (AF) Lloyd-Jones D et al. Circulation. 2010;121:e46-e215.
Slide 12-

Strokes in Atrial Fibrillation (AF) Stroke is the number one cause of long-term disability and the third leading cause of death in patients with AF Annual stroke risk is equal for paroxysmal and permanent AF Greater than 90% of thrombus accumulation originates in the Left Atrial Appendage (LAA)

Atrial Fibrillation and Cryptogenic Stroke Why AF Matters After standard neurologic evaluation, 36% of stroke survivors are classified as cryptogenic AF and Atrial Flutter (AFL) are intermittent in 30% of stroke patients2 AF detection in cryptogenic stroke changes patient treatment Only indication for stroke patients to receive anticoagulation Prevent future strokes by treatment of underlying cause Interrupt natural history progression of atrial fibrillation 2Jabaudon D et al. Stroke. 2004;35:1647-51. 3Tayal AH et al. Neurology. 2008;71:1696-701

Occurrence of Asymptomatic AF and Reliability of Symptoms 1 Strickberger SA, et al. Heart Rhythm. 2005;2:125-131. Methods: “Almost 95% of documented AT episodes were asymptomatic, and symptoms attributed to atrial fibrillation were associated with AT only approximately 15% of the time.” “No significant differences in the specific symptoms that correlated with or without a documented atrial tachyarrhythmia were observed.” Multicenter trial following 48 patients for 12 months to correlate pacemaker-detected atrial tachyarrhythmia (AT) events with symptoms Results/Conclusions: Strickberger1

ACTIVE-W study Patients with atrial fibrillation were randomized to standard therapy with oral anticoagulation (warfarin) or clopidogrel plus aspirin and followed for approximately two years When halted in September 2005, ACTIVE-W had enrolled its target of 6600 patients. Data safety and monitoring board stopped the trial after a clear increase in efficacy was seen in the warfarin arm of the trial. Connolly S.

Outpatient Monitoring Considerations
Slide 30-

Recognition of AF may be difficult due to its often ‘silent’ nature -- 1/3 of patients not aware of so-called ‘asymptomatic AF Much earlier detection of the arrhythmia might allow Timely introduction of therapies to treat AF (rate/rhythm control) Interruption of the natural progression of AF -- Assists in the decision to initiate or discontinue anticoagulation therapy Ability to document onset mechanism of AF to aide in treatment Cardiac Monitoring for Diagnosing AF Camm AJ et al.

Relationship Between Atrial Arrhythmia Burden and Stroke Risk (TRENDS Study) 4 Glotzer T, et al. Circ Arrhythm Electrophysiol. 2009;2:474-480. Methods: /AF burden ≥ 5.5 hours on any of 30 prior days appeared to double TE risk Prospective, observational study analyzing 2,486 patients with ≥ 1 stroke risk receiving pacemakers or defibrillators that monitor atrial tachycardia (AT)/AF burden Annualized TE rates were determined according to AT/AF burden subsets: zero, low (< 5.5 hours [median duration of subsets with nonzero burden]), and high (≥ 5.5 hours) Results/Conclusions: How Much AF For a Stroke: 5.5 Hrs?

TRENDS Study Subgroup Analysis Newly Detected AF (“NDAF”) in Patients with Thromboembolic Events Ziegler P. et al. Stroke. 2010;41 163 patients with previous ischemic stroke/TIA, no known AF, were continuous monitored via pacemaker or ICD NDAF > 5 minute duration were found in 28% patients. 73% of patients had newly detected AT/AF on <10% of follow-up days

How Much AF for a Stroke: 6 min? Assert Study Results: 2580 pts with mean CHADS2 score of 2.29 followed prospectively for 2.5 yrs 10.1% pts with >1 Subclinical AF episode (>190 bpm for >6 min) within first 3 months Associated with increased risk of Clinical AF (HR 5.56 [3.78-8.17]; p<0.001) Associated with increased risk of Ischemic Stroke or Systemic Embolism (HR 2.49 [1.28-4.85]; p=0.007) Cumulative Hazard Healey, JS et al. Subclinical Atrial Fibrillation and the Risk of Stroke. N Engl J Med 2012;366:120-129.
Slide 42-

Among patients with AT/AF episodes >17.72 hours, annual rate of stroke or systemic embolism was 4.89 (95% CI, 1.96 to 10.07)
Slide 43-

Conclusions Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common disorder with significant morbidity, mortality, economic and social considerations Appropriate therapy for AF is dependent on a patient’s risk factors for thromboembolism Long term cardiac monitoring can help diagnose AF and guide appropriate treatment Prior observational studies have demonstrated a link between AF burden and stroke risk
