Rhythm control and cardioversion [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 2007
The three main aims of treatment for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation are: (1) to suppress paroxysms of atrial fibrillation and maintain long-term sinus rhythm; (2) to control heart rate during paroxysms of atrial fibrillation if they occur; and (3) to prevent the complications associated with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation—that is, stroke and ...
