Excerpt

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is frequent in shock patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) [1, 2] and is associated with increased mortality [1]. Several mechanisms are involved in the development of AF in the context of acute circulatory failure, including hypovolemia and β1-adrenergic stimulation in response to endogenous catecholamine production as well as norepinephrine infusion [3]. Atrial fibrillation impairs left ventricular filling and consecutively stroke volume, and in fine potentially aggravates circulatory failure. …
