Temporal trends in loss of expected lifetime associated with cardiovascular complications following newly diagnosed atrial fibrillation: a Danish nationwide cohort study from 2000 to 2022
Among patients with AF, the loss of expected lifetime after incident ischaemic stroke, HF, and MI improved modestly over the past two decades but not after gastrointestinal or intracranial bleeding. These findings support the development and evaluation of interventions that prevent and reduce severity of complications after AF, particularly for bleeding.
