Implication

Prospective cohort study assesses clinical outcomes in older adults with atrial fibrillation, suggesting multidisciplinary teams may not improve results.

Key Points

The study found no significant difference in all-cause death or bleeding between patients managed by multidisciplinary teams and control patients.
16.9% of participants attended a hospital multidisciplinary team meeting, with a primary outcome incidence of 35.3% in this group.
A prospective multicenter cohort study was conducted in five geriatric departments over a 6-month follow-up period.
The findings indicate that multidisciplinary antithrombotic management did not lead to improved clinical outcomes, suggesting need for further investigation.
