Interactions between sleep disordered breathing and atrial fibrillation in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Result description

The aim of this study was to investigate whether patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC) and sleep-disordered breathing (SBD) have a higher prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) compared to patients with HC without SBD. HS is associated with a high prevalence of AF that contributes to increased morbidity and mortality. Overnight oximetry was prospectively performed on 91 consecutive patients with echocardiographically confirmed HC. SBD was associated with a higher prevalence of AF (40% vs 11%, p= 0.005). In addition, SBD was accompanied by significantly increased left atrial volume index (58 +- 19 vs 42 +- 13ml/m2, p = 0.0002). Increasing severity of SBD was correlated with higher AF prevalence and with increase in left atrial volume index. These associations remained significant even after accouting for potential confounders in a multivariete analysis. In conclusion, the presence and severity of SBD may influence left atrial volume index and the prevalence of AF in patients w
