Rapid ventricular response in males, prosthetic valves, tricuspid regurgitation, and right ventricular dysfunction are key predictors of LVEF reduction during atrial fibrillation or flutter.
What are the clinical and echocardiographic predictors of left ventricular systolic dysfunction in patients with atrial fibrillation or flutter?
Male sex, rapid ventricular response, prosthetic valves, and right-sided heart dysfunction are predictors of LVEF reduction in patients with AF/AFL.

In 'real-world' experience, male patients with rapid ventricular response during paroxysmal AF or AFL are more prone to LVEF reduction. Patients with prosthetic valves are also at risk for LVEF reduction during AF/AFL. Finally, tricuspid regurgitation and right ventricular dysfunction may indicate relatively long-standing AF with an associated reduction in LVEF.
