Popis: | Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and contributes to high rates of in-hospital adverse events. However, there are few contemporary studies examining rates of AF in the contemporary era of AMI or the impact of new-onset AF on key in-hospital and post-discharge outcomes. We examined trends in AF among 6,384 residents of Worcester, Massachusetts who were hospitalized with confirmed AMI during 7 biennial periods between 1999 and 2011. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to examine associations between occurrence of AF and various in-hospital and post-discharge complications. The overall incidence of AF complicating AMI was 10.8%. Rates of new-onset AF increased from 1999 to 2003 (9.8% to 13.2%), and declined thereafter. In multivariable adjusted models, patients developing new-onset AF following AMI were at higher risk for inhospital stroke [Odds Ratio (OR) 2.5, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) 1.6–4.1], heart failure [OR 2.0, 95% CI 1.7 to 2.4], cardiogenic shock [OR 3.7, 95% CI 2.8–4.9] and death [OR 2.3, 95% CI 1.9 to 3.0] than patients without AF. Development of AF during hospitalization for AMI was associated with higher rates of readmission within 30-days after discharge [21.7% vs. 16.0%], but no significant difference was noted in early post-discharge 30-day all-cause mortality rates [8.3% vs. 5.1%]. In conclusion, new-onset AF following AMI is strongly related to in-hospital complications of AMI as well as higher short-term readmission rates. |
