Résumé

Percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) has proved to be a safer alternative for long-term anticoagulation; however, patients with a history of intracranial bleeding were excluded from large randomized clinical trials. The purpose of this study was to determine outcomes in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with a history of intracranial bleeding undergoing percutaneous LAAO. National Inpatient Sample and International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, codes were used to identify patients with AF who underwent LAAO during the years 2016-2020. Patients were stratified based on a history of intracranial bleeding vs not. The outcomes assessed in our study included complications, in-hospital mortality, and resource utilization. A total of 89,300 LAAO device implantations were studied. Approximately 565 implantations (0.6%) occurred in patients with a history of intracranial bleed. History of intracranial bleeding was associated with a higher prevalence of overall complications and in-patient mortality in crude analysis. In the multivariate model adjusted for potential confounders, intracranial bleeding was found to be independently associated with in-patient mortality (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 4.27; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.68-10.82); overall complications (aOR 1.74; 95% CI 1.36-2.24); prolonged length of stay (aOR 2.38; 95% CI 1.95-2.92); and increased cost of hospitalization (aOR 1.28; 95% CI 1.08-1.52) after percutaneous LAAO device implantation. A history of intracranial bleeding was associated with adverse outcomes after percutaneous LAAO. These data, if proven in a large randomized study, can have important clinical consequences in terms of patient selection for LAAO devices.

Background UNASSIGNED
Percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) has proved to be a safer alternative for long-term anticoagulation; however, patients with a history of intracranial bleeding were excluded from large randomized clinical trials.
Objective UNASSIGNED
The purpose of this study was to determine outcomes in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with a history of intracranial bleeding undergoing percutaneous LAAO.
Methods UNASSIGNED
National Inpatient Sample and International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, codes were used to identify patients with AF who underwent LAAO during the years 2016-2020. Patients were stratified based on a history of intracranial bleeding vs not. The outcomes assessed in our study included complications, in-hospital mortality, and resource utilization.
Result UNASSIGNED
A total of 89,300 LAAO device implantations were studied. Approximately 565 implantations (0.6%) occurred in patients with a history of intracranial bleed. History of intracranial bleeding was associated with a higher prevalence of overall complications and in-patient mortality in crude analysis. In the multivariate model adjusted for potential confounders, intracranial bleeding was found to be independently associated with in-patient mortality (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 4.27; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.68-10.82); overall complications (aOR 1.74; 95% CI 1.36-2.24); prolonged length of stay (aOR 2.38; 95% CI 1.95-2.92); and increased cost of hospitalization (aOR 1.28; 95% CI 1.08-1.52) after percutaneous LAAO device implantation.
Conclusion UNASSIGNED
A history of intracranial bleeding was associated with adverse outcomes after percutaneous LAAO. These data, if proven in a large randomized study, can have important clinical consequences in terms of patient selection for LAAO devices.
