The causes of atrial fibrillation include high blood pressure, heart disease, lung disease, thyroid issues, viral infections and sleep apnea. Additionally, your age, family history, chronic medical conditions, weight and alcohol consumption can also increase your risk for developing AFib. “Acute or ...
Atrial fibrillation (Afib) is an abnormal heart rhythm caused by erratic electrical signals in the heart. Atrial fibrillation is a progressive disease that worsens.
Permanent pacemaker:This involves implanting a smalldevicenear the heart to send electrical impulses to maintain a normal heart rate. This may be done in combination with a special catheter ablation called an AV nodal ablation. Left atrial appendage (LAA) occlusion:This involves placing a small, u...
AimsThe prognostic importance of atrial fibrillation (AF) in heart failure (HF) populations is controversial and may depend on patient selection. In the present study, we investigated the prognostic impact of AF in a large population with HF of various aetiologies. Methods and resultsWe included ...

However, it has not been until recently, with the genetic link between mutations in proteins responsible for these ionic currents and the familial disease, that we have been given the final evidence that atrial fibrillation can also be primarily an ion channelopathy. Despite the limited prevalence ...
Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is a type of heart disorder that can cause an abnormally high heart rate. The best type of treatment that is recommended for a patient is based on their symptoms. Treatment options of AFib include lifestyle changes, medications
What is atrial fibrillation associated with? Heart: The heart is a fist-sized muscular organ that pumps blood in our body. The heart has four sections or chambers. The upper two chambers are called the left and right atrium, and the lower two chambers are called the left and right ventricl...
