Atrial electrical remodelling and atrial fibrillation
QJM: An International Journal of Medicine, 2000Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common tachyarrhythmia in humans. It causes palpitations, decreased cardiac output, heart failure and systemic thromboembolism, and is associated with significant morbidity, mortality1 and healthcare costs. Current treatment strategies for AF are far from satisfactory.

Atrial pacing for conversion of atrial flutter
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1986Fifty-seven episodes of atrial flutter in 46 consecutive medically treated patients (aged 60 +/- 17 years) were treated by rapid atrial pacing. Thirty-three patients (72%) had structural heart disease. Most pacing trials were conducted in patients receiving digoxin (88%) and antiarrhythmic drugs (77%).

Atrial Vectorcardiogram in Left Atrial Rhythm
Diseases of the Chest, 1969The atrial vectorcardiograms of two cases of left atrial rhythm are described. The essential vectorcardiographic features of the usual type of this ectopic rhythm, with its variations, are discussed. The probable sites of origin of these variations are considered.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a hetrogeneous disease that may present in many forms. Advances in our understanding of the mechanism responsible for AF have led to exciting new therapies that may soon provide a definitive cure.

Verapamil in atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter
Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1979A double‐blind, randomized study was performed to compare the efficacy of intravenous verapamil with saline in 28 patients with a rapid ventricular rate and atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter. Conversion of atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm occurred in none of 14 patients after saline and in 3 of 20 patients (15%) 7 to 160 min after verapamil. The

Atrial size, atrial fibrillation, and stroke
Annals of Neurology, 1986AbstractM‐mode and two‐dimensional echocardiographic images were reviewed retrospectively in 20 patients with atrial fibrillation and ischemic stroke with no known valvular disease and in 20 patients with atrial fibrillation without known stroke. Left atrial size was measured and analyzed without knowledge of patient grouping.

Atrial Fibrillation: The Role of Atrial Defibrillation
Journal of Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology, 2003Dual defibrillator implantation represents an emerging option to treat patients with drug refractory atrial fibrillation. Atrial antitachycardia pacing and cardioversion have been demonstrated to be highly effective in treating spontaneous tachyarrhythmias and may reduce atrial fibrillation burden by preventing atrial remodeling.

Persistent Atrial Standstill with Atrial Inexcitability
Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 1978Electrophysiologic studies including His bundle recording, atrial, and ventricular stimulation, were performed in three symptomatic patients with persistent atrial standstill of unknown etiology. The rhythm was junctional in two cases and ventricular in one.

Bi-Atrial Mapping of Atrial Arrhythmias
Cardiac Electrophysiology Review, 2002Cardiac mapping of atrial activation was originally performed in animals during open chest preparations, using epicardial electrodes. The development of endocardial egg-shaped multiple electrodes provided detailed assessment of the minimum number of wavelengths required to sustain atrial fibrillation (AF), as well as the role of interatrial connections
