Purpose : Atrial fibrillation (AF) is highly prevalent in patients with non-cardiac diseases and in patients with cardiac disease. However, only a few studies have evaluated the characteristics of patients with AF complicated with non-cardiac diseases. We aimed to investigate whether the safety and efficacy of landiolol, an ultra-shortacting β1-selective blocker for controlling rapid heart rate (HR), for patients with AF differed between those with cardiac disease and those with non-cardiac diseases.<br>Materials and Methods : All AF patients with HRs≥ 120 beats/min who received continuous intravenous landiolol administration were included in this study (n=133). The patients were divided into the cardiac (n=55) and non-cardiac (n=78) disease groups. Successful HR control was defined as an HR<110 beats/min and a ≥ 20% decrease in HR in 2 hr after landiolol initiation.<br>Results : Landiolol significantly decreased the HRs of patients with rapid AF in both groups (cardiac : 145±17 to 103±22 beats/min, P<0.001 ; non-cardiac : 145±18 to 114±23 beats/min ; P<0.001). The proportion of patients achieving the efficacy endpoint was higher in the cardiac group than in the non-cardiac group (58.2%, n=32 vs. 35.9%, n=28 ; P=0.02). No intergroup difference was noted in the incidence of adverse events. C-reactive protein levels were independent factors associated with non-effective landiolol responses (odds ratio : OR, 0.958 ; 95% CI, 0.920-0.997 ; P=0.04). A non-effective landiolol response was significantly and independently associated with 30-day mortality (Hazard ratios : HzR, 5.043 ; 95% CI, 1.516-16.777 ; P<0.01).<br>Conclusions : Landiolol may be a therapeutic option for the acute control of rapid AF in patients with either cardiac or non-cardiac complications, especially in those without marked inflammation.
