Brief Summary

Current Knowledge:

Countless studies have been conducted to study the relationship between OSA and AF, and a significant association has been established between both diseases, owing to the numerous shared risk factors and a wide variety of pathophysiological changes resulting from both diseases being relevant to each other. Our study inspects this relationship from a cardiovascular standpoint, examining the prevalence of OSA in existing AF patients, which could be interpreted as AF being a risk factor for OSA development.
