Mobile health-technology integrated care in secondary prevention atrial fibrillation patients: a post-hoc analysis from the mAFA-II randomized clinical trial
AbstractAF patients with history of thromboembolic events are at higher risk of thromboembolic recurrences, despite appropriate antithrombotic treatment. We aimed to evaluate the effect of mobile health (mHealth) technology-implemented ‘Atrial fibrillation Better Care’ (ABC) pathway approach (mAFA intervention) in secondary prevention AF patients. The Mobile Health Technology for Improved Screening and Optimized Integrated Care in AF (mAFA-II) cluster randomized trial enrolled adult AF patients across 40 centers in China. The main outcome was the composite outcome of stroke or thromboembolism, all-cause death, and reho...

Efficacy of mobile health-technology  integrated care based on the ‘Atrial fibrillation Better Care’ (ABC) pathway in relation to sex: a report from the mAFA-II randomized clinical trial
Abstract The Mobile Health Technology for Improved Screening and Optimized Integrated Care in AF (mAFA-II) cluster-randomized trial showed that a mobile health (mHealth)-implemented ‘Atrial fibrillation Better Care’ (ABC) pathway approach reduced the risk of adverse events in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. Whether this benefit can be applied to both males and females is unclear, especially given the suboptimal management and poorer cardiovascular outcomes in females wit h AF. In this post-hoc analysis, we performed a sex-stratified analysis of the mAFA-II trial. Between June 2018 and August 2019, adult AF patient...
