Ian Lusoc MD Flordeliz Lontok MD The Heart Institute St Lukes Medical Center Quezon City Introduction Atrial fibrillation AF is common among patients with valvular heart disease and is a frequent rhythm disorder after cardiac surgery. The LAA is a normal part of the heart anatomy and causes no problems in the general population However this pouch is a major source of blood clots in patients with atrial fibrillation Atrial fibrillation AF is the biggest risk factor for blood clots endocarditis Antimicrobial prophylaxis against infective endocarditis in adults and children undergoing interventional procedures Issued: March 2008 NICE clinical guideline 64 guidance.nice.org.uk/cg6 de la Fibrillation .
