Table 2.

Association between age and events prior to work up and during follow-up, using univariable and multivariable logistic regression

Univariable model
Multivariable model*
OR for age ≥60 years CI p Value OR for age ≥60 years CI p Value
History of AF 3.12 1.73 to 5.63 <0.001 3.52 1.92 to 6.45 <0.001
History of poorly tolerated tachycardia 2.99 1.55 to 5.75 0.001 2.98 1.55 to 5.74 0.001
Failure or recurrence in patients with ablation 1.39 0.55 to 3.54 0.49 1.35 0.51 to 3.57 0.55
Occurrence of AF during follow-up 4.32 2.03 to 9.19 <0.001 2.56 1.12 to 6.04 0.03
Occurrence of poorly tolerated tachycardia during follow-up in untreated patients 7.69 1.8 to 32.9 0.006 NA NA NA

*All multivariable models adjusted at minimum for gender and heart disease. In addition, the model assessing the occurrence of AF during follow-up was further adjusted for history of AF.

AF, atrial fibrillation; NA, multivariable models could not be performed for this outcome due to the limited number of events.
