Atrial Fibrillation and Myocardial Infarction: Clinical and Pathogenic Correlations and Impact for the Prognosis

Abstract
Aim. To summarize the contemporary literature data on the clinical and pathogenic correlations between atrial fibrillation (AF) and myocardial infarction (MI).
Key points. AF is one of the most common and clinically significant arrhythmias. In patients with MI, this type of arrhythmia is recorded for the first time in 6 % to 21 % of cases. The review discusses the incidence of AF in patients with various forms of coronary heart disease, mechanisms of arrhythmogenesis, and the ways to predict poor outcomes in a group of patients with AF who had a history of MI.
Conclusion. The mechanisms of AF development in patients with MI need better understanding. AF impact on the short-term and long-term prognosis for patients with MI should be studied better, and modern tools for the classification of poor outcome risks should be developed.
