There is a number of conflicting data regarding electrocardiographic predictors of atrial fibrillation, among which extrasystoles (ES) stand out, but there is no reliable data on which extrasystoles variants may be considered as a risk factor. To identify the relationship between extrasystoles and atrial fibrillation, we have analyzed 3927 publications, from which we identified 46 works relevant for the topic. The data obtained allows us to consider extrasystole as one of the main predictors of the development of atrial fibrillation. An increase in the number of supraventricular and ventricular ES in the anamnesis of patients with atrial fibrillation indicates their relationship.
