  7. Formal Definition: Atrial Fibrillation AF is an arrhythmia characterized by uncoordinated atrial activation, with consequent deterioration of atrial mechanical function Circulation 2011; 121: e269-e367

  8. The ECG of Atrial Fibrillation Normal sinus rhythm Atrial fibrillation

  9. The “3 Ps” and Natural History of Atrial Fibrillation Paroxysmal Self-Terminating Persistent Lasts > 7 Days Permanent Cardioversion Failed or Not Attempted Paroxysmal AF is as likely to cause stroke as persistent or permanent AF Normal Sinus Rhythm Atrial Fibrillation

  10. Atrial Fibrillation: Epidemiology The No. 1 preventable cause of stroke In the United States, up to 16 million individuals will be affected by the year 2050 Increasing survival from heart attack and increasing age (“the ‘graying’ of America”) help explain rise in incidence of atrial fibrillation

  20. Known Problems With Warfarin • Delayed onset/offset • Unpredictable dose response • Narrow therapeutic index • Drug-drug, drug-food interactions • Problematic monitoring • High bleeding rate • Slow reversibility

  21. Warfarin Will Likely Survive: Why? Established efficacy Low cost ($4/month; $10/3 mos) Long track record (1954) Centralized anticoagulation clinics that maintain TTRs > 60% Rapid, turnaround genetic testing Point-of-care self-testing INR testing q 12 weeks if stable CoumaGen-II.

  26. A “Failure to Prophylax” Syndrome • Over the past decade, about 40% of patients with atrial fibrillation are unprotected from the risk of stroke because of failure to prescribe anticoagulation. • Because criteria for anticoagulation have expanded in 2012, the problem has intensified. • Heightened awareness of the disconnect between guidelines/evidence and suboptimal intervention for SPAF. Anticoagulation is necessary as a first step.

  27. Only 60% Use of Anticoagulation for SPAF: Euro Heart Survey 5,333 AF Patients; 35 Countries: 2003–2004 64 58 59 61 % Receiving Anticoagulation CHADS2 Score Nieuwlaat R, et al. Eur Heart J 2006; 27: 3018

  29. Reasons Why VKAs Were Not Given: Patients with CHADS2 Score ≥ 2 Kakkar AK, et al. PLoS One. 2013 May 21;8(5):e63479

  30. Changing MD Behavior • Guidelines alone do not suffice. • Physician champions • Individual hospital protocols • Registries (GARFIELD) • Coalitions (“Stop AF”) • Public awareness/ advocacy • (North American Thrombosis Forum) • Litigation • Electronic alerts

  31. Computerized Support:Tricks of the Trade • Integrate support into quality improvement. • Link to an incentive system. • Foster acceptance of computer guidance. • Couple support with order entry software. • Limit to key decisions to avoid alert fatigue. • Use automatic, not user-initiated, systems. • Measure outcomes and provider behavior. Piazza G, Goldhaber SZ. Circulation 2009;120:113

  32. The SPAF Landscape 2012: Conclusions The frequency of atrial fibrillation is increasing, so risk of devastating stroke is increasing as well. Anticoagulants can effectively reduce stroke risk, but they are underutilized. NOACs have less ICH bleeding risk than warfarin and are superior—or at least noninferior—for stroke prevention. We must overcome the failure-to-prophylax syndrome.
