– and is interconnected with the severity of underlying disease. Paroxysmal AF persists for many years in only a small part of patients. Slowing the progression of AF from paroxysmal to permanent form improves the prognosis of patients, therefore, the assessment of risk factors for the progression of arrhythmia and prescription the correct tactics for managing patients are urgent tasks of modern cardiology.
