Role of Inflammation in Initiation and Perpetuation of Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review of the Published Data.

Karen P Phillips1.   

Abstract

Inflammation has emerged as being strongly associated with AF initiation and perpetuation, including being implicated as a possible causal factor. Its role needs further elucidation to assist with the optimal prevention and treatment of AF using an individualized strategy. In the present review article the current published data linking inflammation to AF is summarized.
