There has been no scientific trials that confirm the connection with Agent Orange and Afib but the VA has added this to things that may have been caused by the agent. Other problems that can be associated with Agent Orange are PTSD, attention deficit disorder, skin cancer, prostate enlargement among others. But just because the VA and the courts have ruled that vets can get treatment, it doesn't mean that there is actually any direct correlation.

How is agent orange linked to atrial fibrillation?

Agent Orange, a herbicide used during the Vietnam War, has been linked to various health issues, including cardiovascular conditions. Studies suggest that exposure to Agent Orange may increase the risk of atrial fibrillation, a type of irregular heartbeat. This link is thought to be due to the toxic effects of dioxins and other chemicals in Agent Orange, which can lead to inflammation and damage to the cardiovascular system. Veterans exposed to Agent Orange may therefore experience a higher prevalence of atrial fibrillation compared to those who were not exposed.
