Overview
Atrial Fibrillation and Pulmonary Diseases
- In patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), supraventricular arrhythmias, such as atrial fibrillation are common.[1][2]
- One third of death in patients with atrial fibrillation is due to non-vascular diseases such as respiratory diseases. [3]
- A study which investigated seasonal pattern of death among atrial fibrillation patients proposed respiratory infections as a possible cause of higher rate of death among these patients during winter. [4]
- In patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) FEV1 could be used as a predictor for atrial fibrillation development, since FEV1 between 60-80% is related to 1.8-times higher chance of atrial fibrillation, compared to FEV1 higher than 80%. Moreover risk of hospitalization due to atrial fibrillation is 1.3-times higher in patients with FEV1 between 60-80% compared to those with FEV1 higher than 80%. [5][6][7]
- Another study also proposes hypercapnia and high systolic pressure of pulmonary artery as predictors of atrial fibrillation development among chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients, in addition to low FEV1 measures.
- In patients who are experiencing acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), presence of concurrent atrial fibrillation has shown to have worst prognosis.[8]
- The first step in the management is to treat the underlying lung disease and correct hypoxia and acid-base imbalances.
- Theophylline and beta adrenergic agonists, which are commonly used to relieve bronchospasm in these patients, may precipitate atrial fibrillation.
- Moreover in patients with bronchospasm, beta blockers, sotalol, propafenone, and adenosine are contraindicated.
- Non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker and intravenous flecainide may be used to restore sinus rhythm. However, in hemodynamically unstable patients direct-current cardioversion may be attempted. [9]
- In patients refractory to medications, AV nodal ablation and ventricular pacing may be necessary to control the ventricular rate.

Pulmonary Disease
Class I |
"1. A nondihydropyridine calcium antagonist is recommended to control the ventricular rate in patients with atrial fibrillation and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
"2. Direct-current cardioversion should be attempted in patients with pulmonary disease who become hemodynamically unstable as a consequence of new onset atrial fibrillation. (Level of Evidence: C)" |

Pulmonary Diseases (DO NOT EDIT) [11]
Class I |
"1. Correction of hypoxemia and acidosis is the recommended primary therapeutic measure for patients who develop atrial fibrillation during an acute pulmonary illness or exacerbation of chronic pulmonary disease. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
"2. A non dihydropyridine calcium channel antagonist (diltiazem or verapamil) is recommended to control the ventricular rate in patients with obstructive pulmonary disease who develop atrial fibrillation. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
"3. Direct-current cardioversion should be attempted in patients with pulmonary disease who become hemodynamically unstable as a consequence of atrial fibrillation. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
Class III (Harm) |
"1. Theophylline and beta-adrenergic agonist agents are not recommended in patients with bronchospastic lung disease who develop atrial fibrillation. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
"2. Beta blockers, sotalol, propafenone, and adenosine are not recommended in patients with obstructive lung disease who develop atrial fibrillation. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
