Abstract
Background: Since the incidence of AF in patients with implanted pacemakers is higher than the general population, it was the aim of this retrospective study to assess the factors associated with new-onset AF after PM implantation. The clinical and PM variables included in the analysis were: age, sex, indication for PM implant (SSS or AVB), type of cardiophathy, pacing mode (VVI, DDD), left atrial and left ventricular dimensions. Methods: From a database of 869 Pts, 733 Pts with previous to PM implant and no history of AF were included.
