Rate Versus Rhythm Control Pharmacotherapy For Atrial Fibrillation: Where are We in 2008?
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustainedcardiac rhythm disturbance encountered by physicians. The management of AF isfocused on control of heart rate, correction of rhythm disturbance, andrisk-determined prophylaxis of thromboembolism. The goals of AF therapy are, aswith other serious disorders, to reduce mortality (if possible) and morbidity(improve quality of life, [QOL]). To thi...
متن کاملInvestigating the Effect of Inflammation on Atrial Fibrillation Occurrence by Measuring Highly Sensitive C-reactive Protein (hs-CRP)
Introduction: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent cardiac arrhythmias that cardiologists and internists encounter. The goal of this article is to clarify an overview of the evidence linking inflammation to AF existence, which may highlight the effect of some pharmacological agents that have genuine potential to reduce the clinical burden of AF by modulating inflammatory pathways. Mat...
متن کاملNew manifestations of electrophysiological remodeling of heart during experimental model of atrial fibrillation in cirrhotic rat isolated heart
Introduction: The present study is aimed to evaluate electrophysiological remodeling of atrioventricular (AV) node and ventricular conduction during experimental atrial fibrillation (AF) model in isolated heart of cirrhotic rats. Methods: Cirrhosis-induced electrophysiological remodeling was evaluated in 24 isolated retrogradely perfused rat hearts in 2 groups (control and cirrhotic). Cirrho...
متن کاملبررسی شیوع لخته دهلیز و گوشک دهلیز چپ در بیماران مراجعه کننده با فلوتر دهلیزی بر حسب بیماری زمینه‌ای
Introduction: Most current evidence suggests the risk of left atrial and or auricular thrombi(LA &LAA) in patients with atrial flutter rhythm is similar to patients with atrial fibrillation, but there is still uncertainty in the risk level and the patient's need to receive anticoagulant therapy. Different studies report various frequencies for atrial thrombi and left atrial spontaneous echo-con...
متن کاملStroke prevention in atrial fibrillation: pharmacological rate versus rhythm control.
Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia associated with increased risk for embolic stroke. Restoration of sinus rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation is a logical strategy to prevent the cardiovascular and thromboembolic complications of this dysrhythmia. The most common strategy for restoration of sinus rhythm is pharmacological antiarrhythmic therapy with or without electrical cardio...
