dc.description.abstract | Objective: AF may create confusion about the presence of severe or unstable coronary artery disease in cases with unstable symptoms. Novel scores and markers are needed to determine severe coronary artery disease in such patients. We aimed to test the newly developed CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc-FSH score, developed by adding family history for coronary artery disease, hyperlipidemia, and smoking to the original CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc score, in the prediction of severe CAD in patients with AF and unstable symptoms. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 72 patients presenting to Baskent Universtiy School of Medicine Hospital between April 2011 and January 2016. The CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc-FSH score was assessed for the prediction of severe CAD. Results: Seventy-two patients aged 65.7 +/- 11.2 years were enrolled. Thirty-five (48.6%) patients had severe CAD and 11 (15.3%) had unstable CAD. patients with severe coronary artery disease had a significantly greater CHA(2)DS(2)-VASC-FSH score (5 (1-8) vs 3(0-7); p< 0.05). The CHA(2)DS(2)-VASC-FSH score independently predicted severe CAD, with a CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc-FSH score of 3 or greater having a sensitivity of 77.1% and a specificity of 56.8% for severe CAD. Conclusion: Among patients with AF and unstable symptoms, the CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc-FSH score independently predicts severe CAD. | en_US |
