Abstrakt: Aims Amiodarone is one of the most efficient and safe antiarrhythmic drugs in the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). Although pro-arrhythmic effects of amiodarone therapy are rare, the aim of the present study was to identify clinical constellations which may lead to amiodarone-associated pro-arrhythmia.
