Canine model of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and paroxysmal atrial tachycardia.
Both autonomic nerve activity and electrical remodeling are important in atrial arrhythmogenesis. Therefore, dogs with sympathetic hyperinnervation, myocardial infarction (MI), and complete atrioventricular block (CAVB) may have a high incidence of atrial arrhythmias. We studied eight dogs (experimental group) with MI, CAVB, and sympathetic hyperinnervation induced either by nerve growth factor...
متن کاملParoxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Presenting as Acute Lower Limb Ischemia
An ischemic foot can be developed by acute arterial occlusion. Given proper treatment within critical time, the patient can avoid foot amputation and death. Early proper diagnosis and treatment by family physician at the initial clinical interviewing is important in saving the affected leg and the life. Thrombosis and embolism are the common causes of acute arterial occlusion. Thrombosis mostly...
متن کاملAblation of Paroxysmal and Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in humans. Its maintenance is thought to be due to multiple wavelets reentry occurring in both atria [1]. Previous studies have demonstrated the feasibility and efficacy of cryoablation to create lesions in both atria [2] and on the posterior wall of the left atrium [3], connecting the four pulmonary veins and the mitral annulu...
متن کاملPolyuria in Paroxysmal Tachycardia and Paroxysmal Atrial Flutter and Fibrillation.
When Paul Wood spoke about this to the British Cardiac Society in 1961, we were impressed by the originality of his work on a subject that so many had noticed but failed to investigate. A few months before his death in July 1962, when I asked him if his paper was ready for the journal, he said that he had not yet been able to get all the evidence he hoped for to establish the full explanation. ...
متن کاملParoxysmal atrial fibrillation, stroke risk and thromboprophylaxis.
Thromb Haemost 2008; 100: 11–13 Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the commonest sustained cardiac rhythm disorder, which has particularly attracted much clinical and research interest from the mortality and morbidity associated with stroke and thromboembolism. The more chronic presentations of AF have clinical subtypes based on the temporal pattern of the arrhythmia – AF is considered recurrent when ...
