Atrial fibrillation and coronary artery disease: a review on the optimal use of oral anticoagulants
Rev Cardiovasc Med. 2021 Sep 24;22(3):635-648. doi: 10.31083/j.rcm2203074.ABSTRACTAtrial fibrillation (AF) represents the most prevalent supraventricular arrhythmia in adults population and up to 15% of AF patients undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary artery disease (CAD) during their life. While oral anticoagulants (OACs) exert a protective effect in the setting of stroke prevention and systemic embolization in AF patients, patients undergoing PCI are recommended to receive dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) to reduce the risk of cardiovascular death, recurrent myocardial infarction and stent thromb...

Concomitant surgical ablation for treatment of atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing cardiac surgery
Rev Cardiovasc Med. 2022 Mar 16;23(3):101. doi: 10.31083/j.rcm2303101.ABSTRACTSurgical ablation is a well-established therapy for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing cardiac surgery. However, it is not clear if this translates to an improvement in patient important outcomes such as mortality, stroke, and quality of life (QoL). Electronic searches were performed of Ovid Medline and PubMed from their inception to October 2021. Eligible literature included comparative studies with patient undergoing surgical ablative treatment for AF concomitant to any cardiac surgery procedure and patients without specific AF t...
