Overview
Atrial Fibrillation and Hyperthyroidism
- Atrial fibrillation occurs in 10% to 25% of patients with hyperthyroidism.[1]
- Based on another study 15% of patients with hyperthyroidism develop atrial fibrillation in comparison to 4% chance of atrial fibrillation development in normal population. It's incidence is also more common in males and among hyperthyroidism patients with triiodothyronine (T3) toxicosis.[2]
- Subclinical hyperthyroidism increases the risk of atrial fibrillation up to 3 fold. [2]
- Elevation of thyroid hormones in hyperthyroidism is responsible for chronotropic and dromotropic effects on heart. [2]
- Numerous mechanisms have been explained about increased risk of atrial fibrillation among patients with hyperthyroidism. The following are some of the responsible mechanism:[2]
- Increase in left ventricular mass in addition to impaired ventricular relaxation which lead to elevation of left atrial pressure
- Heart rate elevation and subsequent ischemia
- Atrial ectopic activity
- Decreased action potential
- Atrial fibrillation in the setting of thyrotoxicosis has been shown to be associated with decompensated heart failure and a significant increase in morbidity and mortality rate.[3][2][4][5][6]
- Beta blockers and non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers may be used to control ventricular rate.[1]
- In patients with hyperthyroidism, oral anticoagulation may be recommended to prevent systemic embolism.[7]
2014 AHA/ACC/HRS Guideline for the Management of Patients With Atrial Fibrillation (DO NOT EDIT)[8]
| Class I |
| "1. Beta blockers are recommended to control ventricular rate in patients with atrial fibrillation complicating thyrotoxicosis unless contraindicated. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "2. In circumstances in which a beta blocker cannot be used, a nondihydropyridine calcium antagonist is recommended to control the ventricular rate. (Level of Evidence: C)" |

Hyperthyroidism (DO NOT EDIT) [9]
| Class I |
| "1. Administration of a beta blocker is recommended to control the rate of ventricular response in patients with atrial fibrillation complicating thyrotoxicosis, unless contraindicated. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
| "2. In circumstances when a beta blocker cannot be used, administration of a nondihydropyridine calcium channel antagonist (diltiazem or verapamil) is recommended to control the ventricular rate in patients with atrial fibrillation and thyrotoxicosis. (Level of Evidence: B)" |
| "3. In patients with atrial fibrillation associated with thyrotoxicosis, oral anticoagulation (INR 2.0 to 3.0) is recommended to prevent thromboembolism, as recommended for atrial fibrillation patients with other risk factors for stroke. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "4. Once a euthyroid state is restored, recommendations for antithrombotic prophylaxis are the same as for patients without hyperthyroidism. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
