[Auricular fibrillation in myocardial infarct].
Auricular fibrillation was observed in 17.8% of patients with large-focal myocardial infarction, mainly in females (p 0.01). The localization of myocardial infarction had no impact on the incidence of auricular fibrillation. The precursors of auricular fibrillation included atrial extrasystoli and an elevated electrolyte coefficient of the blood NaeKe. In the group of patients with myocardial infarction and auricular fibrillation mortality was more common among the females. Auricular fibrillation developing beyond the first postinfarction day worsened the prognosis considerably. The outcome of myocardial infarction did not much depend on the duration of auricular fibrillation and on the cardiac contraction frequency.
