摘要: The pharmacological approach to atrial fibrillation (AF) involves heart-rate control, anticoagulation, and restoration of normal sinus rhythm. Whereas there is strong evidence demonstrating a reduction in morbidity mortality using anticoagulation for AF, are no large-scale prospective studies similar benefit antiarrhythmic drugs maintain This chapter reviews the data regarding presents an managing clinical scenarios involving rate-slowing therapy.
