Abstract

Introduction: A common and abnormal heart rhythm or Atrial fibrillation (AF) mannerism and major public global health dispute because it is expanding in the risk of heart failure (HF), dementia, stroke, and death. Aim & objective: A study of prevalence, clinical features, risk factor aspects and prognostication of atrial fibrillation in hospitalized older patients. Methodology: All patients subjected to 14 lead electrocardiogram (ECG) and transthoracic, echocardiogram (ECHO) using with Philips iE33 High-Performance Echocardiography machine (which is also called as a premium level cardiovascular ultrasound machine) and Doppler evaluations. Results: In this study, dysarrhythmia and Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most common clinical feature. And found in 20 of patients majority 18 (90%) who belongs to 55-60 years of age. Discussion: Grant V and Curt D Furberg et al demonstrated that normally age is correlated with a high prevalence of so many Atrial Fibrillation including (AF) heart arrhythmia. A study of MD and Michiel Rienstra et al, shown those arrhythmias encountered are the most common in clinical practice were in atrial fibrillation (AF). Amongst the 20 Atrial Fibrillation (AF) patients in this study, where are the rate controlled achieved nearly 16(80%) patients with complete rehabilitation. In this study, fully confiscated Atrial fibrillation (AF) with normal sinus flow in 4 (20%) patients with hyperthyroidism. Conclusions: In this study, most belonged 55- patients belonged to 60 – 75 years of age bench with a female prepondrance. And that found the most common analytical features and most common valvular deformity. Amongst the 20 of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) patients, out of that full recovery rate control, achievement in 16 patients and rest of indication a better prognostication
