Deepthy Varghese, MSN, ACNP, FNP, Northside Hospital is joined by Hung-Fat Tse, Sr., MD, University of Hong Kong and Glenn Young, MBBS, Royal Adelaide Hospital to discuss the effectiveness of the PRECISE-DAPT score with the CHA2DS2VASC score in predicting thromboembolic risk in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF) patients undergoing transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) before AF ablation. 428 patients were analyzed, with 60 in the thrombogenic positive group and 368 in the thrombogenic milieu negative group. Multivariate logistic regression revealed that the PRECISE-DAPT score independently predicted thrombogenic milieu presence (OR: 1.145, CI: 1.083–1.211, p < 0.001). The study concluded that the PRECISE-DAPT score is a valuable predictor of thromboembolic risk in AF patients undergoing TEE before ablation procedures.
