Relationship between QRS duration and incident atrial fibrillation
Abstract
BACKGROUND: QRS duration (QRSd), a measure of ventricular conduction, has been associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes, but its relationship with incident atrial fibrillation (AF) is poorly understood.
METHODS AND RESULTS: This study included 15,314 participants from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study who were free of AF at baseline. QRSd was automatically measured from resting 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) at …
