Atrial Fibrillation

Annals of Internal Medicine, 2023
Evidence for diagnosis and treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) has expanded substantially since 2017, when In the Clinic last considered this subject. Direct oral anticoagulants have become the predominant therapy for thromboembolic disease, and antidotes for these drugs are now available.

Atrial fibrillation

The Lancet, 2012
The management of atrial fibrillation has evolved greatly in the past few years, and many areas have had substantial advances or developments. Recognition of the limitations of aspirin and the availability of new oral anticoagulant drugs that overcome the inherent drawbacks associated with warfarin will enable widespread application of effective ...

Atrial fibrillation

European Heart Journal, 1984
Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia and one which may cause pilot incapacitation. In many cases there may be no more than one episode and there will be no organic heart disease. Prediction of the risk of recurrence is not possible. Atrial fibrillation in both paroxysmal and persistent forms should be disqualifying for Class I or unrestricted ...

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2000
Atrial fibrillation will present the most significant arrhythmia management challenge for clinicians in the new millennium, particularly as the percentage of elderly patients and longevity increase worldwide. The clinical manifestations of the arrhythmia are wide ranging: paroxysmal to permanent modes of occurrence and asymptomatic to severely ...

Atrial Fibrillation

Anesthesiology Clinics of North America, 2006
Over 2 million people in the Untied States are known to have AF, and this number is expected to rise to 5 to 6 million in the next 50 years. In spite of advances in detection and treatment of AF, it is still associated with significant morbidity and mortality.

Atrial Fibrillation

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2005
Our understanding of the pathophysiology and clinical consequences of atrial fibrillation has led to an evidence-based revolution in the management of atrial fibrillation over the last decade. As we improve in our ability to detect recurrent atrial fibrillation and treat it definitively, the patients who benefit from long-term anticoagulation may ...

Atrial Fibrillation

Heart Disease, 2002
The prevalence and incidence of atrial fibrillation increase with age. Atrial fibrillation is associated with a higher incidence of coronary events, stroke, and mortality than sinus rhythm. A fast ventricular rate associated with atrial fibrillation may cause tachycardia-related cardiomyopathy.

Atrial Fibrillation Revisited

New England Journal of Medicine, 1982
Atrial fibrillation is the grandfather of cardiac arrhythmias. Known in the 19th century as "arrhythmia perpetua," it was clearly defined clinically by MacKenzie and electrocardiographically by Lewis at the beginning of this century. Except for the development of direct-current shock therapy some two decades ago, the management of atrial fibrillation ...
