Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most common arrhythmias with high disability rate and mortality, which seriously affects the quality of patients life. Thromboembolism is one of the most serious complications of AF, however, the mechanism of thromboembolism caused by AF has not been fully clarified at present. Some biomarkers and risk scores could be applied in predicting the occurrence and development of AF related thromboembolism. This paper reviews the research progress in risk factors of thromboembolism among patients with AF in terms of patients basic data, laboratory examinations, echocardiography, etc.
