Severe infection linked to long-term heart rhythm problems

The adjusted hazard ratio for new heart rhythm disorders was 1.85 after hospital-treated infection compared with no infection, over 14.2 years’ median follow-up.The adjusted hazard ratio for new heart rhythm disorders was 1.85 after hospital-treated infection compared with no infection, over 14.2 years’ median follow-up.
