The Atrial Fibrillation-Dementia Connection: Current Knowledge and Future Directions July 2022

Linda Moulton, RN, MS Faculty: Order and Disorder EP Training Program, Critical Care ED/CCE Consulting, Calistoga, California The presence of atrial fibrillation (AF) has been associated with a higher risk of developing Alzheimers disease (AD) and all forms of dementia.1-4 The risk of dementia in AF has been found to be 34%-40% higher than for those without AF.5-6 This is true independent of the presence of stroke.7 The relationship is also seen to be stronger for those who develop AF at an earlier age, and therefore, have AF for a longer duration.7-10

How Atrial Fibrillation Can Lead to Dementia By Elizabeth Pratt on November 14, 2018

Patients with an abnormal heartbeat also show signs of silent brain injury. That’s according to a study recently presented at the American Heart Association’s Scientific Sessions in Chicago. Researchers say they found that patients with atrial fibrillation can experience chronic injury to the brain that may not be obvious through symptoms. The findings could have important implications in identifying patients at risk of neurodegenerative problems such as dementia and cognitive decline. “Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained abnormal heart rhythm and will impact 30 to 40 percent of our aging population. Dementia is strongly associated with atrial fibrillation and is becoming a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Atrial fibrillation patients develop dementia earlier and the progression is more rapid. How we identify and treat atrial fibrillation can impact dementia risk,” Dr. Jared Bunch, co-author of the study and medical director of Heart Rhythm Services for Intermountain Healthcare, told Healthline.

Association Between Atrial Fibrillation and Dementia in the General Population JAMA Neurol. 2015;72(11)

Renée F. A. G. de Bruijn, MD1,2; Jan Heeringa, MD, PhD1; Frank J. Wolters, MD1,2; et alOscar H. Franco, MD, PhD1; Bruno H. C. Stricker, MD, PhD1; Albert Hofman, MD, PhD1; Peter J. Koudstaal, MD, PhD2; M. Arfan Ikram, MD, PhD1,3 IMPORTANCE Atrial fibrillation (AF) has been suggested as a risk factor for dementia since it may lead to chronic cerebral hypoperfusion and stroke. However, longitudinal studies assessing the association between AF and dementia have shown inconsistent results. OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of AF on the risk of developing dementia during 20 years of follow-up. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS The association of prevalent and incident AF with incident dementia was assessed from July 6, 1989, to February 4, 2010, in 6514 dementia-free participants in the prospective population-based Rotterdam Study. Data analysis was conducted from September 18, 2014, to April 17, 2015. Cox proportional hazards regression models adjusting for age, sex, and cardiovascular risk factors; censored for stroke; and stratified by median age were used. In addition, we investigated whether the association between incident AF and dementia varied according to the duration of exposure, categorized in 6-year time bands.

Atrial Fibrillation and Dementia: A Report From the AF-SCREEN International Collaboration American Heart Journal Circulation. 2022;145:

Léna Rivard, Leif Friberg, David Conen, Jeffrey S. Healey, Trygve Berge, Giuseppe Boriani, Axel Brandes, Hugh Calkins, A. John Camm, Growing evidence suggests a consistent association between atrial fibrillation (AF) and cognitive impairment and dementia that is independent of clinical stroke. This report from the AF-SCREEN International Collaboration summarizes the evidence linking AF to cognitive impairment and dementia. It provides guidance on the investigation and management of dementia in patients with AF on the basis of best available evidence. The document also addresses suspected pathophysiologic mechanisms and identifies knowledge gaps for future research. Whereas AF and dementia share numerous risk factors, the association appears to be independent of these variables. Nevertheless, the evidence remains inconclusive regarding a direct causal effect. Several pathophysiologic mechanisms have been proposed, some of which are potentially amenable to early intervention, including cerebral microinfarction, AF-related cerebral hypoperfusion, inflammation, microhemorrhage, brain atrophy, and systemic atherosclerotic vascular disease.

Is there a direct link between irregular heart rhythm and dementia risk?

By Corrie Pelc on March 9, 2023 — Fact checked by Hilary Guite, FFPH, MRCGP Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of arrhythmia, affecting about 46.3 million people globally. Previous research is unclear about whether or not AFib is a direct risk factor for cognitive decline and dementia or whether observed increases in dementia are indirectly due to increased strokes from AFib. Researchers have found that people with newly-diagnosed AFib have a modestly elevated risk of developing dementia whether or not they had a stroke from AFib. Scientists found the risk to be higher in healthier adults under the age of 65. Atrial fibrillation (AFib) — a type of arrhythmia causing an irregular heart rhythm — affects about 46.3 million peopleTrusted Source around the world. Previous research supports AFib as a potential risk factor for cognitive declineTrusted Source and dementia.
