Myocardial Architecture and Patient Variability in Clinical Patterns of Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]
, 2016 Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risk of stroke by a factor of four to five and is the most common abnormal heart rhythm. The progression of AF with age, from short self-terminating episodes to persistence, varies between individuals and is poorly ...

Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation on Flecainide Therapy [PDF]
European Journal of Internal Medicine, 2020 Flecainide pill-in-the-pocket therapy is a pharmacologic treatment option for patients with infrequent episodes of symptomatic atrial fibrillation. We report a case of wide complex tachycardia due to atrial flutter with 1:1 atrioventricular conduction in a patient who took pill-in-the-pocket flecainide without concomitant atrioventricular nodalblockade.

Initiating mechanisms of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation [PDF]
Europace, 2003 The understanding of the onset mechanisms of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) may help to develop preventive therapy. Specific heart rate (HR) patterns and autonomic changes immediately before the onset of paroxysmal AF are not fully investigated. We undertook the present study to assess HR and heart rate variability (HRV) changes before the onset ...

Altered excitation-contraction coupling in human chronic atrial fibrillation [PDF]
, 2012 This review focuses on the (mal)adaptive processes in atrial excitation-contraction coupling occurring in patients with chronic atrial fibrillation. Cellular remodeling includes shortening of the atrial action potential duration and effective refractory ...

Triggers for atrial fibrillation. the role of anxiety [PDF]
, 2019 Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most widely recognized arrhythmia. Systemic arterial hypertension, diabetes, obesity, heart failure, and valvular heart diseases are major risk factors for the onset and progression of AF.
