| Popis: | Aims This study aimed to investigate the correlation of heart rate profile during exercise with exercise capacity and heart failure occurrence in patients with atrial fibrillation compared with patients with sinus rhythm. Methods We analyzed 2231 patients (atrial fibrillation: n = 321, sinus rhythm: n = 1910) who underwent a symptom-limited maximal cardiopulmonary exercise test at our institute. Their heart rate profile during exercise was assessed using peak heart rate and chronotropic response; (peak heart rate−resting heart rate)/(220−age−resting heart rate). The endpoint was the occurrence of heart failure events, defined as hospitalization for heart failure or heart failure-related death. Results There were significant positive correlations of peak heart rate and chronotropic response to peak oxygen consumption, both in atrial fibrillation and sinus rhythm. During a median follow-up period of 1262 (interquartile range 974–2921) days, 117 (5.2%) heart failure events were observed. Multivariate analyses showed that peak heart rate and chronotropic response were statistically significant predictors of heart failure events both in atrial fibrillation (peak heart rate: heart rate 0.975, p = 0.002, chronotropic response: heart rate 0.196, p = 0.003) and in sinus rhythm (peak heart rate: heart rate 0.988, p = 0.036, chronotropic response: heart rate 0.347, p = 0.020). Bivariate models showed that compared with chronotropic response, peak heart rate was a stronger predictor of heart failure in atrial fibrillation, whereas the finding was reversed in sinus rhythm. Conclusion The exercise- heart rate profile was significantly related to exercise capacity and future heart failure events, regardless of rhythm. However, the impacts of peak heart rate and chronotropic response on the endpoint varied according to the cardiac rhythm. |
