Abstract
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused more deaths due to both COVID-19 and other clinical conditions such as cardiovascular disease. The relationship between atrial fibrillation (AF) and COVID-19 infection is complex.1 Indeed, AF has found to be associated with a significantly increased risk of short-term mortality in patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.2 Furthermore, patients with COVID-19 per se have an increased risk of developing AF.3 The aim of the present study was to investigate the trend of AF-related mortality in the United States before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
