Table 3.

Results of hazard ratios comparing atrial high-rate events variables for each clinical outcome based on Cox regression model

Clinical outcome AHRE variable
Low AHRE vs. zero AHRE High AHRE vs. zero AHRE High AHRE vs. low AHRE
TE HR 4.3 HR 9.4 HR 2.4
(CI 0.73–26.2) (CI 1.8–47.0) CI (0.58–9.8)
P= 0.11 P= 0.006 P= 0.23
TE + cardiovascular death HR 2.1 HR 4.0 HR 2.0
(CI 0.72–6.0) (CI 1.5–10.1) (CI 0.73- 5.6)
P= 0.17 P= 0.004 P= 0.18
TE + AFa+ HFb+ cardiovascular death HR 1.0 HR 3.8 HR 3.9
(CI 0.49–2.1) (CI 2.3–6.3) (CI 1.9–7.9)
P= 1.0 P< 0.0001 P< 0.0001

Low AHRE corresponds to a burden of 14 min to <3.8 h in 24 h monitoring period, high AHRE corresponds to a burden >3.8 h in a 24 h monitoring period.
