Advanced Interatrial Block is Associated With New-onset Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Objectives:Interatrial block(IAB)is a conduction delay between the right and left atria,which is a phenomenon recognized as an electrocardiogram(ECG)feature of atrial fibrosis.This study aimed to investigate the relationship between advanced IAB and in-hospital new-onset atrial fibrillation(NOAF)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI).Methods:This single-center retrospective observational study consecutively enrolled 916 patients diagnosed with STEMI from September 2019 to June 2022,who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention within 24 hours of onset.ECG was recorded in all patients at the first medical contact,and the ECG was scanned and uploaded on the official China Chest Pain Center platform.The detection rate of IAB and the incidence of NOAF in STEMI patients were analyzed,and the possible associated factors of new-onset atrial fibrillation during hospitalization of STEMI patients were evaluated by logistic regression analysis.Results:IAB was detected in 269(29.4%)patients,57(21.2%)of these patients had advanced IAB.In-hospital NOAF was detected in 89(9.7%)patients.Multivariate analysis showed age(OR=1.070,95%CI:1.045-1.095,P<0.001),left ventricular ejection fraction(OR=0.929,95%CI:0.901-0.957,P<0.001),right coronary artery lesion(OR=1.672,95%CI:1.042-2.683,P=0.033),and advanced IAB(OR=4.007,95%CI:1.973-8.138,P<0.001)were independent determinants of in-hospital NOAF among STEMI patients.Integrated discrimination improvement(IDI)and net reclassification improvement(NRI)were improved significantly when advanced IAB was included in the NOAF risk model with a satisfactory C index(0.742).Conclusions:Advanced IAB is an independent risk marker for NOAF in patients with STEMI.Advanced IAB has incremental impact for improving the discriminatory accuracy of the NOAF predicting model.
