Aim: to elucidate risk factors of development of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and to assess of patient’s adherence to oral anticoagulant therapy (OAT) during 12 months after ACS episode according to the data of the Total ACS Registry for the Krasnodar Territory. Materials and methods. In this retrospective analysis we used Registry data on patients with ACS and concomitant AF, consecutively admitted to cardiological departments of the S.V. Ochapovsky Territorial Clinical Hospital from 20/11/2015 to 20/02/18. Number of patients in the analyzed group was 201 (52 with AF which first appeared in connection with the index ACS). Survivors after hospital discharge were contacted by telephone and at planned visits. The analysis included assessment of rates of the following outcomes: inhospital death, hemorrhagic and thromboembolic complications, prognostic efficacy of the CRISADE and HAS BLED scores, and expediency of prescription to patients with ACS and concomitant first AF episode of prolonged OAT after hospital discharge. Results. Demographic and anamnestic data of patients with the first AF attack at the background of ACS were like those of patients with other types of AF. This group of patients was characterized by more severe course of the disease, but this produced no impact on inhospital mortality and rate of complications, as well as on mortality for 12 months after hospital discharge. Conclusion. The results of this analysis are important for understanding distinctive characteristics of patients with AF first developed during ACS.
