Why the study?
Does excessive supraventricular ectopic activity increase the risk of atrial fibrillation, death, or stroke in apparently healthy subjects?
Does excessive supraventricular ectopic activity increase the risk of atrial fibrillation, death, or stroke in apparently healthy subjects?
Excessive supraventricular ectopic activity in healthy individuals serves as a prognostic marker for incident atrial fibrillation, stroke, and death.
ESVEA may flag higher AF/stroke risk for monitoring; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
ESVEA in apparently healthy subjects is associated with development of atrial fibrillation and is associated with a poor prognosis in term of death or stroke.
