“…The reason of higher incidence of AF in the STEMI population is still undetermined. The incidence of AF in AMI with and without ST-segment elevation was also compared and published at RICO study, but the result was without statistically significance (7.6 vs. 7.7%, p=0.334) [27]. …”

AbstractThe large epidemiological studies demonstrated that atrial fibrillation is correlated with high mortality and adverse events in patients with acute myocardial infarction. The aim of this study was to determinate predictors of atrial fibrillation develop during the hospital period in patients with acute myocardial infarction as well as short- and long-term mortality depending on the atrial fibrillation presentation. The 600 patients with an acute myocardial infarction were included in the study and follow-up 84 months. Atrial fibrillation develops during the hospital period was registered in 48 patients (8%). After adjustment by logistic regression model the strongest predictor of atrial fibrillation develop during the hospital period was older age, particularly more than 70 years (odds ratio 2.37, CI 1.23-4.58, p=0.010), followed by increased of Body Mass Index (odds ratio 1.17, CI 1.04-1.33, p=0.012), enlarged diameter of left atrium (LA) (odds ratio 1,18, CI 1,03-1,33, p=0,015) presentation of mitral regurgitation (odds ratio 3.56, CI 1.25-10.32, p=0.018) and B-type natriuretic peptide (odds ratio 2.12, CI 1.24-3.33, p=0.048).Patients with atrial fibrillation develop during the hospital period had a higher mortality during the hospital course (10.4% vs. 5.6%) p=0.179. as well as follow-up period of 84 months than patients without it (64.6% vs. 39.1%) p=0.569, than patients without it, but without statistically significance. Patients with AF develop during the hospital period had higher mortality during the hospital course as well as follow up period of 84 months than patients without it, but without statistically significance.

“…Additionally, various other potential triggers such as ischemic artery disease 15 , myocardial infarction 16 , mitral valvular stenosis 17 , smoking 18 , alcohol use 19 , caffeine use 20 , pulmonary disease 21 , and renal failure 22 have also been associated with the development of APC’s. Despite low prevalence of the majority of these risk factors in the present cohort, our study still showed a strong association of the presence of APC’s with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality.…”

Premature ectopic beats are frequently detected on routine 12-lead screening-electrocardiogram (ECG). However, their prognostic importance in individuals without known cardiovascular disease (CVD) is not well established. We evaluated prognostic value of atrial premature complexes (APC’s) and ventricular premature complexes (VPC’s) detected by a single 12-lead-ECG. A prospective cohort of 7504 participants selected from nationally-representative, community-dwelling individuals living in United States, enrolled in the Third Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES-III) from 1988 – 94 with follow up through December 2006 without known CVD. The main outcomes were all – cause mortality, CVD related mortality and IHD related mortality. Out of 7504 participants (mean age 60 ± 14 years, 47% women, 49% whites), 89 (1.2%) had APC’s and 110 (1.5%) had VPC’s on 12 – lead ECG. During a follow up of up to 18 years, 2386 deaths occurred, of which 963 were due to CVD and 511 were due to IHD. In a multivariable adjusted for demographics, clinical variables and ECG measures, APC’s were significantly associated with all-cause mortality [HR, 1.41 (95% CI, 1.08–1.80)], CVD death [HR, 1.78 (95% CI, 1.26–2.44)] and IHD death [HR, 2.40 (95% CI, 1.59–3.47)]. For VPCs, however, there were no significant associations with all – cause mortality [HR, 1.05 (95% CI, 0.80–1.36)], CVD death [HR, 0.96 (95% CI, 0.62–1.43)] and IHD death [HR, 0.89 (95% CI, 0.47–1.52)]. In conclusion, APC’s, but not VPC’s, on routine screening ECG are predictive of adverse events in community-dwelling individuals without known CVD.

“…Sinus node ischemia, atrial ischemia, congestive heart failure, pericarditis, right ventricular infarction, and other factors may be involved in the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation in acute myocardial infarction [26][27][28]. The mechanisms involved in the genesis of atrial fibrillation are mostly focused on ischaemia of atrial tissue and haemodynamic change imposed on the atrium due to heart failure [10,11,29,30].…”
