Introduction: Atrial Fibrillation is the most commonly encountered quivering or irregular heart beat (arrhythmia) in our population, and it is the disordered supraventricular (atria) event characterized by irregular heart rhythm, there by altered atrial electrical and mechanical function will occur, it will lead to significant economic burden to the society by causing morbidity and mortality. Aims: To find out the varied presenting symptoms of Atrial fibrillation, to find out possible underlying predisposing factors for Atrial fibrillation, both cardiac and non-cardiac in our population and to perform Transthoracic Echocardiography and analysis of its parameters in Atrial fibrillation patients. Materials and Methods: This study was a Cross-sectional study. This study was conducted in the Cardiology Department of NRS medical college, during the year January 2022 to December 2022. 100 patients were included in this study. Result: In the study group, 41.6% (N=32) of patients with RHD presented with failure, 39.1% (n=9) of patients with Non RHD presented with failure. The difference was statistically insignificant („P-value >.05). In our study 88% of the people had normal EF,6% of the people had mildly abnormal,4% of the people had moderately abnormal, and the remaining 2% of them presented with severely abnormal EF, Presence of abnormal EF(LV systolic dysfunction) independently predicts the risk of stroke shown by Atrial fibrillation investigators study. Conclusion: Patients with RHD etiology presented with AF in middle age, patients with Non RHD etiology presented in older age and patient presented with AF of rheumatic origin were mostly female patients, whereas non rheumatic origin were male patients.
