Atrial fibrillation (AF) can lead to complications such as stroke and heart failure. The prevalence of AF in patients with MI has garnered increasing attention due its significant impact on clinical outcomes. Understanding associations various risk factors is crucial for improving patient management Objective: To determine the frequency atrial acute ST elevation myocardial infarction. Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional study, conducted at Department Cardiology, Mardan Medical Complex, from September 2023 August, 2024. About 118 patients, already diagnosed cases segment infarction, were enrolled study. was considered positive absence P waves irregularly irregular QRS complexes surface electrocardiography. Data collected under supervision expert consultant analyzed using SPSS version 20. Results: observed 14% (n=17) STEMI. mean age cohort 55 years (SD±9.29). study population predominantly male (66%) a high diabetes (71%) hypertension (78%).
