The ABC-Death Score for Mortality Prediction in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Catheter Ablation.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Data on the performance of risk scores in predicting mortality risk after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablations are limited.

Objectives

The purpose of this study was to investigate the associations of mortality with preablation biomarkers and evaluate the performance of age, biomarker, and clinical history (ABC)-death score in patients with AF undergoing catheter ablation.

Methods

Patients with AF undergoing catheter ablations between 2013 and 2019 in the Chinese Atrial Fibrillation Registry were enrolled. Biomarkers associated with ABC-death score were quantified from baseline blood samples collected before AF ablation. Clinical outcomes were all-cause mortality and cardiac mortality. Discrimination, reclassification, clinical use, and calibration were furthe
