Overview
Common risk factors associated with the developmant of ventricular fibrillation (especially in the setting of myocardial infarction) include younger age (<60 years old), family history of sudden cardiac death, absence of preinfarction angina, history of atrial fibrillation, and heavy alcohol use.
Risk Factors
Risk factors for the development of ventricular fibrillation especially in the setting of acute myocardial infarction include:[1][2][3]
- Family history of sudden death
- Cumulative ST elevation
- Left coronary artery lesions leading to myocardial infarction
- Absence of preinfarction angina
In one nationwide study, ventricular fibrillation in the setting of acute myocardial infarction was associated with following risk factors:[4]
- Age < 60 years old
- Absence of preinfarction angina
- Family history of sudden death
- Use of statins
- History of atrial fibrillation
- Alcohol intake >7 units per week
