Фибрилляция предсердий (ФП) и СН - новые эпидемии ССЗ, частое сочетание которых усугубляет неблагоприятный прогноз пациента во многом за счет повышения риска тромбоэмболических осложнений. В обзоре рассмотрены основные данные об эпидемиологии, механизмах и прогнозе при сочетании СН и ФП, подходах к назначению прямых оральных антикоагулянтов (ПОАК) и возможностях ривароксабана.

Heart failure and atrial fibrillation are the two new epidemics of cardiovascular disease. Their frequent coincidence increases mortality rates mainly because of increased risk of thromboembolic events. Their review focuses on epidemiology, mechanisms, prognosis in patients with heart failure and atrial fibrillation, approaches to the administration of direct oral anticoagulants and role of rivaroxaban.
