“…Patients with AF on arrival had a lower mortality risk compared to those developing AF during hospitalization. A similar finding was reported in the GUSTO I trial [4][5][6][7][8][9] in which AF which occurred during hospitalization was independently associated with mortality. The presence of AF is associated with a high risk of heart failure and mortality in MI patients, regardless of its timing.…”

“…[1][2][3][4] The causal etiologies of AF in the setting of AMI that have been fully established include atrial ischemia or infarction, pericardial inflammation, acute hypoxia or electrolytemetabolic imbalance, and hemodynamic impairment secondary to left ventricular dysfunction. [18][19][20][21] Additionally, endogenous or exogenous catecholamines may also contribute to AF. 22) Moreover, an association between AF and an increased incidence of severe ischemia and CHF and pump failure has also been identified.…”

“…Furthermore, some studies have not observed increased mortality both during the hospital as well as long-term follow-up period in patients with AMI and AF develop during the hospital period compared to those without this rhythm disorder [2325]. This was the reason why we do this research and check this association in our interviewees.…”
