Atrial Fibrillation Complicating Acute Myocardial Infarction: Prevalence, Impact, and Management Considerations.

Clinical risk factors, laboratory markers, echocardiographic findings, and angiographic data can be used to assess patients at risk of developing NOAF post-AMI. The diagnosis of NOAF post MI has been associated with overall worse short- and long-term prognosis with increased risk for mortality, cardiogenic shock, stroke, and bleeding, along with reduced rates of coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention, and higher risk of future recurrence of AF and ischemic stroke. Despite the paucity of preventative treatment, the optimal management of acute coronary syndrome and the use of guideline directed therapy do decrease the risk of development of atrial fibrillation post myocardial infarction.
