In atrial flutter, a problem with the electrical system causes the upper atria to beat much faster than the ventricles. Flutter vs. fibrillation The condition is similar to atrial fibrillation in that both affect the atria and cause a rapid heartbeat. However, atrial flutter results in a fast...
Atrial fibrillation symptoms vs. flutter Atrial flutter is another type of abnormal heart rhythm. It happens when a short circuit causes the upper chambers of your heart (atria) to pump too fast. In atrial fibrillation, the heart's electrical impulses come from multiple areas, causing the atrial...
What is atrial fibrillation (A-fib)?A-fib is an irregular heartbeat that reduces your heart's ability to pump blood through your body. A-fib may come and go, or it may be a long-term condition. A-fib can cause life-threatening blood clots, stroke, or heart failure. It is important...
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
Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is a common type of irregular heartbeat. While it’s not necessarily life-threatening on its own, it’s a serious complication that may require emergency care. Learn more about atrial fibrillation, including AFib symptoms and c
Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is caused by the two upper chambers of the heart beating irregularly. Atrial fibrillation(AFib) occurs when the two smaller, upper chambers of theheart(the atria) beat irregularly instead of rhythmically. This abnormal condition can allowblood clotsto form inside the hear...
Fill in the blanks. Atrial flutter is frequently seen in patients over ___ years of age with ___. What would you expect to find as clinical manifestations of chronic asthma and allergies? In the context of this report, what would the...
Anarrhythmiais an irregular heartbeat or heart rhythm, meaning that the heart is out of its usual normal rhythm. There are different types of irregular heart rhythms, such as premature atrial contraction (PAC), premature ventricular contraction (PVC),atrial fibrillation (Afib), atrial flutter, par...
