Atrial Fibrillation: Causes, Types, and Management
Atrial Fibrillation (AFib) is a condition characterized by a quivery, fluttery heartbeat or an arrhythmia. This irregular heartbeat causes a disruption in the heart’s typical rhythm. AFib can impact blood flow, potentially leading to heart failure and the formation of blood clots, which can trigger a stroke if they travel to the brain.
