Item Clinical characteristics and in-hospital outcomes of acute decompensated heart failure patients with and without atrial fibrillation(2020) Kocabas, Umut; Sinan, Umit Yasar; Arugaslan, Emre; Kursun, Mustafa; Coner, Ali; Celebi, Ozlem Ozcan; Ozturk, Cengiz; Dalgic, Onur; Turkoglu, Ebru Ipek; Kemal, Hatice Soner; Gazi, Emine; Altin, Cihan; Zoghi, Mehdi; 32352420Objective: Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) are common cardiovascular diseases. The impact of AF on in-hospital outcomes in acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is controversial. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of AF among hospitalized patients with ADHF and describe the clinical characteristics and in-hospital outcomes of these patients with and without AF. Methods: We examined the multicenter, observational data from the real-life data of hospitalized patients with HF: Journey HF-TR study in Turkey that studied the clinical characteristics and in-hospital outcomes of hospitalized patients with ADHF between September 2015 and September 2016. Results: Of the 1,606 patients hospitalized with ADHF, 626 (39%) had a history of AF or developed new-onset AF during hospitalization. The patients with AF were older (71 +/- 12 vs. 65 +/- 13 years; p<0.001) and more likely to have a history of hypertension, valvular heart disease, and stroke. The AF patients were less likely to have coronary artery disease and diabetes. In-hospital adverse event rates and length of in-hospital stay were similar in ADHF patients, both with and without AF. In-hospital all-cause mortality rate was higher in patients with AF than in patients without AF, although the difference was not statistically significant (8.9% vs. 6.8%; p=0.121). Conclusion: AF has been found in more than one-third of the patients hospitalized with ADHF, and it has varied clinical features and comorbidities. The presence of AF is not associated with increased adverse events or all-cause mortality during the hospitalization time.Item Design and rationale of dabigatran's stroke prevention in real life in Turkey (D-SPIRIT)(2016) Turk, Ugur Onsel; Alioglu, Emin; Tuncer, Esref; Ozpelit, Mehmet Emre; Pekel, Nihat; Tengiz, Istemihan; Cetin, Nurullah; Dalgic, Onur; Topaloglu, Caner; Bilgin, Nazile; Altin, Cihan; Ozdemirkiran, Tolga; Tuluce, Kamil; Turkoglu, Ebru Ipek; Ozpelit, Ebru; 27138311Objective: The D-SPIRIT registry is designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of dabigatran etexilate in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and to collect data on outcomes in clinical practice. Methods: The D-SPIRIT is a national, prospective, observational, post-marketing registry involving patients with NVAF who have been taking dabigatran etexilate therapy for stroke prevention for a minimum of 6 months prior to enrollment. The registry will collect and analyze data from routine care, enrolling up to 600 patients in 9 centers. Patients will be followed up for 2 years to evaluate effectiveness and safety. A sample size of 600 subjects is proposed based on the following assumptions; Two-sided significance level of 0.05 (1-sided significance level of 0.025), ischemic stroke incidence rate of 0.768%-1.111%, hemorrhagic stroke incidence rate of 0.109%-0.130%, transient ischemic attack incidence rate of 0.722%-0.623%, therapy discontinuation incidence rate of 40% at day 730, and duration of enrollment period of 12 months with non-uniformed enrollment rate. Ethics approval was given by Dokuz Eyll University Ethics Committee of Clinical Research (2014/54) and approved by the Turkish Ministry of Health. Conclusion: Potential results of D-SPIRIT registry will add data from clinical practice to those from the RE-LY trial to expand knowledge of dabigatran etexilate treatment in patients with NVAF.
