    Atrial fibrillation is common in hospitalized patients, particularly women. Comprehensive etiological surveys are crucial for effective treatment planning and prognosis, reducing idiopathic cases.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Internal Medicine

    Context:

    • Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a frequent cardiac arrhythmia, affecting approximately 10% of men and over 20% of women admitted to cardiology departments.
    • Idiopathic permanent atrial fibrillation cases can be reduced to under 10% with thorough etiological investigations.

    Purpose:

    • To highlight the high prevalence of atrial fibrillation in hospitalized cardiac patients.
    • To underscore the importance of comprehensive etiological assessments in managing atrial fibrillation.
    • To address the complexities in therapeutic indications due to diverse etiologies and prognostic factors.

    Summary:

    • This review emphasizes the significant frequency of atrial fibrillation (AF) in cardiology admissions.
    • It advocates for comprehensive etiological surveys to minimize idiopathic AF and improve patient outcomes.

  • Impact:

    • Improved diagnostic strategies for atrial fibrillation.
    • Personalized treatment approaches for atrial fibrillation patients.
    • Enhanced understanding of atrial fibrillation prognosis and management complexities.
