The progressive nature of atrial fibrillation: a rationale for early restoration and maintenance of sinus rhythm.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, affecting young as well as elderly patients and presenting a major therapeutic challenge for clinical cardiologists. Recent research has elucidated the progressive nature of AF, including the structural and electrical remodelling that may become manifest if normal sinus rhythm is not restored, and the serious morbidities ...
متن کاملRespiratory systolic pressure variability during atrial fibrillation and sinus rhythm.
Previous studies have found that respiratory variations of ventricular response in atrial fibrillation are infrequent and inconsistent. This asynchrony between heart rate and respiration may characterize the physiological mechanisms coupling heart rate and systolic blood pressure oscillations in the respiratory band. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether synchronous variations in systol...
متن کاملSinus Rhythm and Chronic Atrial Fibrillation
Methods and Results: Atria versus ventricles have lower IK1, resulting in more depolarized resting membrane potential ( 7 mV). We used higher Ito,fast density in atrium, removed Ito,slow, and included an atrial-specific IKur. INCX and INaK densities were reduced in atrial versus ventricular myocytes according to experimental results. SERCA function was altered to reproduce human atrial myocyte ...
متن کاملAtrial fibrillation. Reversion to normal sinus rhythm.
Auricular, or atrial fibrillation, is one of the most common cardiac arrhythmias. The mechanism of diagnosis will not be considered here, but rather the clinical criteria for attempted reversion to normal sinus rhythm. This report is concerned with the chronic type associated with severe organic heart or vascular disease, and in those persons previously considered bad risks. The treatment of at...
متن کاملMechanism of immediate recurrences of atrial fibrillation after restoration of sinus rhythm.
An immediate recurrence of AF may occur after restoration of sinus rhythm. Although pulmonary vein (PV) isolation has been shown to prevent immediate recurrence of AF, the specific trigger for immediate recurrence of AF has not been described. In 89 consecutive patients (mean age 53 +/- 11 years) who had sinus rhythm restored by spontaneous or transthoracic cardioversion in the course of a PV i...
