Prevalence of atrial fibrillation among patients attending our policlinic (2.44 and 3.78% in 2002 and 2009, respectively) was higher among men than among women and progressively increased with age achieving maximum in the group of patients aged >= 85 years. Paroxysmal and persistent forms were more frequent than permanent AF. Thromboembolic complications, heart failure and valvular heart disease were to a greater degree characteristic of permanent AF.
