Risk Factors for New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With Sepsis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

摘要

Objective: Atrial fibrillation frequently develops in patients with sepsis and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Unfortunately, risk factors for new-onset atrial fibrillation in sepsis have not been clearly elucidated. Clarification of the risk factors for atrial fibrillation during sepsis may improve our understanding of the mechanisms of arrhythmia development and help guide clinical practice.
