The work deals with retrospective evaluation of quality of life in outpatients with chronic atrial fibrillation in one medical center. The aim was to use a questionnaire survey using standard methods to determine whether various aspects of quality of life depend on any of the specific
indicators such as gender, age or time elapsed since the diagnosis. There have been some significant dependencies of quality of life indicators on age, but no gender dependence has been  demonstrated.

Keywords: atrial fibrillation, quality of life, arrhythmias, questionnaire investigation
