Abstract 205: New Onset Heart Failure and Adverse Ischemic Events Associated with Amiodarone and Dronedarone Use among Atrial Fibrillation Patients Poster Session II
Conclusions: In a propensity score matched observational cohort study, amiodarone use was associated with higher incidence rate of new onset HF, HF hospitalizations, and TIA as identified from claims. This finding differs from other clinical studies. Future observational cohort studies should incorporate medical record review for validation since information from claims might be insufficient to fully account for underlying patient risk status, or accurately determine if HF was new onset.Key words: amiodarone; dronedarone; atrial fibrillation; heart failure.
