Incidence and impact of atrial fibrillation in heart failure patients: real‐world data in a large community

Abstract: AimsThe objective of the present study is to assess the bidirectional association between heart failure (HF) and atrial fibrillation (AF) using real-world data. Methods and resultsFrom an electronic health recording with a population of 3 799 885 adult subjects, those with prevalent or incident HF were selected and followed throughout a study period of 5 years. Prevalence and incidence of AF, and their impact in the risk for acute HF hospitalization, worsening renal function, ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke,… Show more

“…The mechanisms include activation of the renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS), mechanical traction on the left atrium, and atrial electrophysiological remodelling [10,12,[13][14][15]. AF also plays a role in the occurrence and progression of AHF [16].…”

AF also plays a role in the occurrence and progression of AHF [16]. Thus far, research has mainly focused on the incidence of AF in patients with AHF; few studies have examined the incidence of AHF in patients with AF.…”
