Characteristics and Clinical Outcomes of Patients Hospitalized for Acute Heart Failure Who Develop Atrial Fibrillation or Convert to Sinus Rhythm [PDF]
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia in acute heart failure (AHF), with a prevalence of approximately 35%. However, little is known about the clinical characteristics and outcomes of in-hospital conversion from AF ...

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2006 Recently, several randomized trials were published on the issue of rate or rhythm control for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Patients were typically minor symptomatic, relatively old, with age above 70, presenting with a recurrence of AF and ...

Does sinus rhythm beget sinus rhythm? Effects of prompt cardioversion on the frequency and persistence of recurrent atrial fibrillation. [PDF]
, 2003 Recent clinical and experimental studies have demonstrated that atrial fibrillation (AF) alters the electrical and mechanical remodeling of the atrium, which subsequently promote the maintenance and recurrence of AF. If atrial remodeling can be prevented
