Abstract

It was carried out an analytical cohort study in patients treated in the Intensive Therapy and Emergency Services at the University Hospital «Carlos Manuel de Cespedes» in Bayamo from May 1, 2013 until April 30, 2015, with the aim of identifying independent risk factors for the onset of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases (CVD) in patients diagnosed with auricular fibrillation (AF). The sample consisted of 114 patients. They were included as variables of interest as age, sex, comorbidity and biological markers. As a summary of the statistical analysis there were applied the relative and absolute frequencies, range, measures and standard deviations. The age over 65 years increased the risk of this entity (RR: 2.428) as well as the smoking habit (RR: 5.117), while the male sex was not a risk factor (RR: 1.320). Hypertension increased the likelihood of the disease to more than seven times (RR: 7,927), followed by diabetes mellitus (RR: 3,177). Serum cholesterol (RR 6,950) and C-reactive protein (RR 5,444) were the biological markers that mostly contributed to their appearance. For the significant statistics we considered the values of p <0.05.
