Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. This condition is particularly prevalent in elderly patients, which is associated with age-related changes in the cardiovascular system. The increase in life expectancy leads to the accumulation of age-associated pathologies, which are key risk factors for AF,the high risk of thromboembolic complications and progression of heart failure, as well as polymorbidity, significantly increase the level of disability and mortality in this group.
Age-related changes in metabolism, decreased renal and hepatic function affect the pharmacokinetics of medications, increasing the risk of side effects. A personalized approach, taking into account concomitant diseases, functional status, and cognitive impairments, becomes critically important for this category of patients.
Keywords:atrial fibrillation, advanced age, risk factors, senile asthenia, and specific therapy.
