A multicenter analysis of implantable monitoring device-based diagnosis of supraventricular arrhythmia post patent foramen ovale closure: the OCCL-ILR study
In this multicenter retrospective analysis of patients undergoing percutaneous PFO closure with the Occlutech PFO device, implantable continuous rhythm monitoring devices were able to diagnose new-onset supraventricular arrhythmia (97% AF) after PFO closure in 31% of patients. While 94% of new-onset supraventricular arrhythmia events occurred in the first 45 days post-procedure, one-third of patients with arrhythmia post PFO closure presented AF episodes beyond 60 days post procedure.
