Conclusions: The warfarin treatment rate was lower than recommended for patients with atrial fibrillation in nursing homes, as was probably the use of ACE-inhibitors to heart -failure patients. We found significant differences between the nursing homes with regard to treatment rate. Atrial fibrillation...
population, the incidence of atrial fibrillation is expected to double within the next 50 years. There is evidence that nursing intervention in patient education and transition of care coordination can improve adherence to treatment plans and patient outcomes.This article reviews the recently updated ...
Tari has been a Registered Nurse for 29 years and has her Docotorate in Nursing Practice. In this lesson you will learn about atrial fibrillation, also known as AFib and what the various stages are. We will also discuss all the different symptoms people with atrial fibrillation may have, inc...
Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of cardiac arrhythmia. It is due to abnormal electrical activity within the atria of the heart, causing them to fibrillate. It is characterized as a tachyarrhythmia, which means that the heart rate is often fast. This arrhythmia may be paroxysmal (le...
