- Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risk of death in heart failure patients, especially those with ischaemic heart disease, as shown in a study of 3,587 patients over eight years.
- During the follow-up, mortality rates were higher for patients with AF compared to those without, with notable differences observed at both four and eight years.
- The study highlights that AF’s impact on long-term mortality is significant primarily in patients with ischaemic heart disease, potentially clarifying the mixed outcomes found in previous research on AF and heart failure.
