Prevention of recurrent atrial fibrillation

The prevention of recurrent atrial fibrillation refers to the long-term maintenance of normal sinus rhythm in patients who have experienced two or more documented episodes of this supraventricular tachyarrhythmia, including paroxysmal or persistent forms

Affecting the cardiac conduction system, the condition is pathophysiologically characterized by disorganized atrial electrical activity—frequently triggered by ectopic foci within the pulmonary veins—accompanied by structural remodeling, fibrosis, and impaired atrial mechanical contraction These recurrences lead to an irregular, often rapid ventricular response, producing symptoms such as palpitations, fatigue, and dyspnea while significantly elevating the risks of thromboembolic stroke and hear...
