Popis: BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation (AF) is defined as a rapid, irregular heart rate, which makes it impossible for the heart to pump the blood adequately in the arteries. In women, AF is associated with more severe symptoms and worse prognosis. Catheter ablation is often described as the cure of AF, compared with antiarrhythmic therapy, which is just controlling the AF. OBJECTIVE We sought to assess sex-related differences in complications after catheter ablation in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation METHODS A total of 995 patients (female (f): 455(45.7%), male (m): 540 (54,3%)) over 70 years receiving a cardiac ablation after atrial fibrillation from January 2007- January 2010 with a one year follow-up were gathered from the German Ablation Registry and were compared between male and female patients. RESULTS The median age for both sex is 73 years. 125 (27.5%) females and 122 (22.6%) males are older than 75 years. Elderly male patients had a higher incidence of cardiac comorbidities (f: 48.4%, m: 58.9%, P=
POZADINA: Fibrilacija atrija (AF) definira se kao brz, nepravilan ritam otkucaja srca, koji onemogućuje srcu da adekvatno pumpa krv u arterije. U žena, AF povezujemo s težim simptomima i lošijom prognozom. Kateterska ablacija se često opisuje kao lijek za AF, u usporedbi s antiaritmičkom terapijom, koja samo kontrolira AF. CILJ: Pokušali smo procijeniti spolne razlike u komplikacijama nakon kateterske ablacije u starijih bolesnika s fibrilacijom atrija METODE: U Ukupno 995 pacijenata (žene (ž): 455 (45,7%), muškarci (m): 540 (54,3%)) tijekom 70 godina primijenjena je ablacija srca nakon fibrilacije atrija od siječnja 2007. do siječnja 2010. uz jednogodišnje praćenje, prikupljeno je iz njemačkog registra ablacije i uspoređeno između muških i ženskih pacijenata. REZULTATI: Prosječna dob za oba spola je 73 godine. 125 (27,5%) žena i 122 (22,6%) muškaraca starije je od 75 godina. Stariji muški bolesnici imali su veću incidenciju srčanih komorbiditeta (f: 48,4%, m: 58,9%, P=
