PURPOSE: To assess the role of atrial fibrillation (AF) on complicating inpatient outcomes of radical prostatectomy (RP). MATERIALS AND METHODS: We identified patients treated with RP during 2012-2014 within National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database. Length of stay, cost of hospitalization, and in-hospital complications were compared between patients with or without diagnosis of AF. Propensity score matching methods and multivariable regression analysis were used to adjust for potential confounders and a trend analysis was conducted. RESULTS: Patients with AF had a significantly longer hospital stay (coefficient 0.19, 95% CI 0.09-0.29, P < 0.001) and higher cost (coefficient 0.10, 95% CI 0.06-0.15, P < 0.001). Post-operative cardiac complications were significantly higher for patients with AF (OR 16.38, 95% CI 7.72-34.74, P < 0.001), while no differences were found in other complications between the two groups. Similar results were shown in propensity score matching methods. The cardiac complications after laparoscopic RP (OR: 37.71, 95% CI 1.85-768.73, P = 0.018) and open RP (OR: 16.78, 95% CI 1.41-199.51, P = 0.026) were significantly higher than robot-assisted RP (RARP) in patients with AF. The results of trend study indicated that postoperative cardiac complication rates showed a trend of decreasing year by year while the prevalence of AF was rising. CONCLUSIONS: Perioperative AF is associated with increased cardiac complications, longer hospital stay and higher cost in PCa patients undergoing RP. RARP may be a preferred choice for patients with AF. Attention should be paid to this special patient population. Reasonable pre-operative risk stratification and standardized management should be done to decrease perioperative complications.
