尽管有许多流行病学研究，但关于美国医院收治房颤（AF）患者作为主要诊断的近期趋势以及这些住院结局的决定因素的数据很少：在本研究中，我们调查了1996年至2001年美国医院房颤住院率的近期趋势，使用了所有急性房颤患者的代表性样本，美国疾病控制中心提供的护理住院情况，特别注意年龄、性别、种族和其他结局决定因素的重要性，即住院死亡率。(C)2004年，摘编。美第奇公司
Despite numerous epidemiologic studies, few data exist on recent trends in admissions to United States hospitals of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) as a primary diagnosis and on the determinants of outcome of these hospitalizations: In the present study, we investigated recent trends in the incidence of AF admissions to United States hospitals from 1996 to 2001 using a representative sample of all acute-care hospital admissions in the United States provided by the Centers for Disease Control, with special attention to the importance of age, gender, race, and other determinants of outcome, namely, in-hospital mortality.
