Adherence to the Atrial Fibrillation Better Care (ABC) pathway and the risk of major outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation: A post-hoc analysis from the prospective GLORIA-AF Registry.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The 'Atrial fibrillation Better Care' (ABC) pathway has been proposed to streamline a more holistic or integrated care approach to atrial fibrillation (AF) management. We aimed to analyse the impact of adherence to the ABC pathway on the risk of major adverse outcomes in a contemporary prospective global cohort of patients with AF.

Methods

Patients enrolled Phase II and III of the GLORIA-AF Registry with complete data on ABC pathway adherence and follow-up were included in this post-hoc analysis between November 2011 and December 2014 for Phase II, and between January 2014 and December 2016 for Phase III. The primary outcome was the composite of all-cause death and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). Multivariable Cox-regression and delay of event (DoE) a
