2015年12月15日 · Vagal atrial fibrillation (AF) remains an under-recognised entity, affecting younger patients often with structurally normal hearts. Although there remains no universal definition or diagnostic criteria, in this review we describe recognised triggers and associated features, including a well-established association with athletic training.

2024年1月19日 · This comprehensive analysis explores the connection between the vagus nerve and AF, delving into the basics of AF, understanding the vagus nerve, the relationship between the two, and the potential for vagus nerve-based treatments.

2018年6月18日 · “What is the difference between “Adrenergic” and “Vagal” Atrial Fibrillation? How can I tell if I have one or the other? Does it really matter? Does Pulmonary Vein Ablation (Isolation) work for Adrenergic and/or Vagal A-Fib?”

2022年5月26日 · A spike in the vagus nerve from eating a large meal can spark an Afib event. Research shows that when gastrointestinal issues resolve, Afib episodes typically subside. While less common, cold food and drinks can also lead to an event.

2022年8月18日 · The presence of both sympathetic activation-mediated triggers and parasympathetic activation-mediated substrates are required to initiate and maintain some forms of atrial fibrillation (AF). AF predominantly precipitated by parasympathetic stimulation is known as vagally-mediated AF (VM-AF)."

AF predominantly precipitated by parasympathetic stimulation is known as vagally-mediated AF (VM-AF). The role of novel drugs and molecular targeted gene therapy that modulate the autonomic nervous system are therapeutic options in this unique population with VM-AF.

2024年4月9日 · Atrial fibrillation is a common heart rhythm disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by rapid and irregular electrical signals in the atria, the upper chambers of the heart.

Vagal maneuvers are a first-line (first choice) treatment for supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) (fast heart rate) because they’re a low-risk, low-cost way to slow down a heart rate that’s too fast.

2021年11月9日 · Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is the most common type of arrhythmia in the United States. Learn more about this condition, including causes and symptoms and how it’s treated.

Symptoms of warmth, nausea, light-headedness may precede a simple faint (sometimes referred to as a vaso-vagal attack). Unusual sensations such as a smell, Deja vu or involuntary movements of a limb prior to an attack may indicate epilepsy. The recovery period is also important. How long did you feel unwell, tired or confused for after the event?
