2024年10月8日 · Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia. It is characterised by disorganised atrial electrical activity and contraction. The incidence and …

This chapter discusses the classification, causes (electrophysiology), ECG /EKG diagnosis, risk factors and management (treatment) of atrial fibrillation. Includes a complete e-book, video …

Atrial flutter has the typical “sawtooth pattern,” whereas multifocal atrial tachycardia requires three distinct P wave morphologies in one 12-lead ECG tracing. Note that there are quite a few...

2022年6月30日 · Atrial fibrillation is typically detected as an irregular pulse or an irregular rhythm on an electrocardiogram (ECG). This may be an incidental finding or may arise while …

2023年8月2日 · One of the ways a doctor will monitor A-fib is by examining an electrocardiogram (EKG). This painless test uses electrodes applied to different locations on the chest to …

2015年5月18日 · Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of cardiac arrhythmia. It is the leading cardiac cause of stroke. Risk factors for atrial fibrillation include advanced age, high blood …

2022年1月26日 · 12-lead ECG: the diagnostic investigation for AF. Typical features include tachycardia (particularly in new-onset), irregularly irregular rhythm, absent P-waves, fibrillation …

2024年10月6日 · Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained dysrhythmia and is characterised by disorganised atrial electrical activity and contraction resulting in an …

On an electrocardiogram, atrial fibrillation is the absence of distinct P waves. By contrast, atrial flutter appears on ECG as a sawtooth pattern. While it is difficult to quantify, the atrial …

2025年3月17日 · Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia in clinical practice, with a prevalence in developed countries close to 2% of the general population. Atrial …
