Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure frequently coexist and are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. We investigated the prognosis of anticoagulated patients with permanent AF and nonpermanent AF according to preexisting heart failure in the AMADEUS (Evaluating the Use of SR34006 Compared to Warfarin or Acenocoumarol in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation) trial.
