Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most frequent sustained arrhythmia. The prevalence is increasing with that of other cardiovascular risk factors in our low-income setting. It is potentially serious due to the associated complications. Few data exist on the epidemiology of AF in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA 2/8OALib Journal patients. Conclusion: Atrial fibrillation was seen in seven percent of patients in the Cardiology Unit of this low-income setting. Patients were relatively young compared with high income settings. Hypertension, idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, and valvular heart disease were the main causes. Rate control was the main treatment strategy. Oral anti-coagulants were less frequently used.
