B-po02-154 figure of eight sutures in fully anticoagulated patients after left atrial appendage occlusion may obviate need for anticoagulation reversal
There are limited data regarding vascular access site management after left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO). Intravenous protamine is widely used to reverse anticoagulation but has potential for serious adverse reactions including anaphylaxis, thrombosis, and stroke.

B-ab17-01 left atrial closure device thrombosis is associated with systemic embolization
Cardioembolic stroke and systemic embolism (CS/SE) represents the most severe complication of atrial fibrillation. Approximately 92% of intracardiac thrombosis originates from the left atrial appendage (LAA) and, although  its mechanical occlusion is a proved method to prevent cardioembolism, thrombosis of all types of LAA occlusion devices and their associations with CS/SE were observed.

B-po02-079 performance of atrial fibrillation burden patterns detected via insertable cardiac monitor for stroke risk stratification
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with increased stroke risk, yet limitations in conventional monitoring restrict our understanding of AF burden risk thresholds. Predictive algorithms incorporating continuous monitoring data may be useful for stroke prediction.

B-ab07-02 spontaneous fluctuations in atrial fibrillation burden in patients with implantable devices: implications for incorporating burden into stroke risk assessment
Studies have tried to improve atrial fibrillation (AF) stroke prediction by incorporating AF burden, typically measured at a single time point.

B-ab05-04 telemedicine atrial fibrillation care: an integrative review
Atrial Fibrillation is a global phenomenon associated with an embolic stroke risk, decreased functional capacity, and worsening quality of life. An episode of atrial fibrillation can be highly symptomatic for patients and many rely on the emergency department for care even though it is often not a genuine medical emergency. Increasing patient access to specialty atrial fibrillation specialists via telemedicine has the potential to improve patient care.

B-po02-052 device detected atrial fibrillation: anticoagulation rates in patients undergoing intensive remote monitoring
Remote monitoring (RM) allows for the early detection of atrial fibrillation (AF), providing an opportunity to evaluate the need for anticoagulation for stroke prevention.

B-ab03-04 cerebral microembolic signal burden during pulsed filed ablation: preliminary results from robotically assisted transcranial doppler
Transcranial Doppler (TCD) has been used to monitor the burden of cerebral microembolic signals (MESs) during atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. MES burden is considered a surrogate marker for stroke risk and has never been reported during AF ablation with the novel pulsed field ablation (PFA) system.

B-po02-051 atrial arrhythmia detection using insertable cardiac monitor in patients with cryptogenic stroke: a real-word cohort study
AF can be the underlying cause of cryptogenic strokes (CS). CRYSTAL-AF demonstrated that 30% developed AF by 36 months using an insertable cardiac Monitor (ICM) in patients with CS.

B-po02-045 utility of a smartphone connected electrocardiogram recorder for detecting atrial fibrillation in post-stroke patients
Atrial fibrillation is one of the important causes of ischemic stroke. Routine 24-hour monitoring reveals latent atrial fibrillation in up to about 5% of cases. Despite the fact that today there are many ways to record heart rate, there is no precise algorithm that allows to detect atrial fibrillation in patients who have survived ischemic stroke of unknown etiology.

B-po03-002 the critical role the allied health professional plays in the management of implantable loop recorder data in patients with history of cryptogenic stroke and atrial fibrillation
Implantation of implantable loop recorders (ILR ’s) requires a dedicated team to manage incoming data. Allied health professionals (AHP) are critical to the management of the numerous events and alerts associated with ILR data. Patients who receive an ILR for the diagnosis of cryptogenic stroke need detailed analysis of each episode to accurate ly identify episodes of atrial fibrillation (AF). Patients who are found to have appropriate detection of AF need to be risk stratified for timely anticoagulation initiation.

B-po01-061 stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation using a percutaneous carotid coil filter: two-year outcomes of the first-in-human capture trial
We previously reported results of a first in human clinical trial (CAPTURE; NCT03571789) in which we studied a novel permanent carotid coil filter that is placed by direct transcutaneous puncture bilaterally into the common carotid arteries (CCAs) to prevent embolic stroke.

B-po01-028 utilization of cardiac monitoring for atrial fibrillation in cryptogenic stroke patients
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is found in ∼1/3 of cryptogenic stroke (CS) patients after long-term monitoring with an insertable cardiac monitor (ICM), enabling the use of anticoagulants for recurrent stroke prevention. However, little is known about monitoring pathways prior to ICM in this population.

B-po01-019 coagulation potential, electrophysiological characteristics and structural remodeling due to atrial fibrillation in young and aged goats
Age is a risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF) as well as for stroke in patients with AF. The effect of ageing on AF mechanisms and on coagulation activity is not well understood.

B-po05-199 differences in stroke or systemic thromboembolism readmissions after hospitalization for atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter
Although atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFL) are different arrhythmias, they are assumed to confer the same risk of stroke and systemic thromboembolism (STE) despite a lack of available evidence.
