People With Heart Arrhythmia Need To Pay Attention To Stroke Risk

... the most common form of heart arrhythmia, a main goal of treatment is stroke prevention. Which is why most Afib patients are prescribed a blood thinner such as warfarin, also known by the brand name Coumadin, to combat the potential for blood clots that could lead to stroke. But warfarin is tough to manage, and some patients have trouble adhering to any medication. A new research letter published in JAMA Cardiology finds Afib patients are even more likely to discontinue warfarin therapy if they’ve had a recent procedure done to address their arrhythmia. “We don’t know if changing the heart to a normal rhythm, by either cardioversion or ablation, always removes the risk of stroke,” says Geoffrey Barnes, M. D., M. Sc., one of the University of Michigan researchers and a cardiologist at the U-M Frankel ...

How Heart Disease Changed The Life Of A Fall River Woman

Hetzler, now 34, went on to speak internationally as an American Heart Association spokeswoman, a position she still holds, and one that may have helped her as well as others. “I’ve done a lot of work with parents who’ve lost their kids from (Long QT syndrome),” Hetzler said. Maybe it was divine intervention that nudged her toward a different journey. Maybe it was just chance, or science. Whatever it was, Hetzler said she has “no regrets” and can look forward to a long and healthy life for herself and her children.

Coincidentally, her surgery was on the American Heart Association’s National Go Red for Women Day, to spread awareness about women and heart disease. When she learned she no longer had to worry about her condition, it was a shock. “I looked at my doctor and said, ‘I cried when you told me I had this condition, and I’m crying now that I don’t have this condition.’”. Hetzler said deciding to remove the defibrillator, which became a ...
