Atrial fibrillation (AFib) significantly increases the risk of stroke by five times, making stroke prevention crucial for individuals with this condition. Traditionally, blood thinners have been the go-to solution, but not everyone can or wishes to take these medications. Enter Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion (LAAO) – a promising alternative that offers effective stroke prevention without the need for long-term blood thinners. Renowned cardiologist Frank Laws explains how LAAO is making a difference in the lives of AFib patients and providing peace of mind.

It involves creating scar tissue to disrupt the faulty electrical signals that cause AFib. A successful ablation can minimize the need to take medications to control AFib.

Most people are all too familiar with snoring. In fact, most people regardless of health and fitness will snore from time to time. But when this snoring becomes consistent, it can correlate to a variety of negative health concerns related to the heart. Chronic snoring currently affects 25% of U.S. adults, and it's tightly linked to sleep apnea. It is also estimated that 50% of people with atrial fibrillation have sleep apnea. Sleep apnea causes intermittent periods of low oxygen (hypoxemia) and fluctuations in blood pressure throughout the night. These changes put extra pressure on the heart and cause the body to release stress hormones. The stress hormones increase overall inflammation, damage blood vessels and upsets the balance and regulation of other hormones. Over time, the nightly struggle to breathe leads to structural changes within the heart and irritation of the heart’s electrical conduction system. Researchers think it is these structural changes coupled with the irritated electrical conduction system that are the link between sleep apnea and Afib.
