BackgroundAcute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated by tachyarrhythmias or high-grade atrioventricular block (HAVB) may lead to increased mortality.PurposeTo evaluate the sex differences in patients with AMI complicated by tachyarrhythmias and HAVB and their associated outcomes.Materials and methodsWe analyzed the incidence rates of arrhythmias following AMI from the Acute Coronary Syndrome Israeli Survey database from 2000 to 2018. We assessed the differences in arrhythmias incidence and the associated mortality risk between men and women.ResultsThis cohort of 14,280 consecutive patients included 3,159 (22.1%) women and 11,121 (77.9%) men. Women were less likely to experience early ventricular tachyarrhythmia (VTA), (1.6% vs. 2.3%, p = 0.034), but had similar rates of late VTA (2.3% vs. 2.2%, p = 0.62). Women were more likely to experience atrial fibrillation (AF) (8.6% vs. 5.0%, p |
