β˜• DECAF Trial insight!

A new JAMA study shows that daily caffeinated coffee may lower recurrence of atrial fibrillation compared with abstinence.

Patients drinking ~1 cup/day had 47% recurrence vs 64% with abstinence (HR 0.61, p=0.01) πŸ“‰πŸ’“

No major safety concernsβ€”challenging long-held beliefs that coffee is proarrhythmic.

πŸ’‘Takeaway: For many patients with AF, enjoying their morning brew may be both safe and possibly beneficial.
