  1. 21. Atrial fibrillation : clinical presentation and management, with special emphasis on magnesium therapy

    Författare :Mats Frick; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :atrial fibrillation; magnesium; arrhythmias; cardioversion; sotalol;

    Sammanfattning : Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, causing disabling symptoms, risk of thromboembolic events and increased mortality. Some patients with AF are asymptomatic, but to what extent these patients differ from patients with symptoms is unclear. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Atrial fibrillation and its association to cardiac function and structure in cardiovascular disease

    Författare :David Waldenhjort; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Aim: To study associations between atrial fibrillation (AF) and echocardiographic measures of left atrial (LA) and left ventricular (LV) parameters in patients with underlying cardiovascular disease. Hypothesis: LA and LV dysfunction can predict AF in heart failure (HF) or ischemic stroke. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Risks and risk monitoring in sotalol therapy for atrial fibrillation

    Författare :Hanna Lenhoff; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) stands as the most prevalent arrhythmia, significantly impacting both the prognosis and symptomatology of affected individuals. Healthcare expenditures associated with AF treatment and its related complications, in terms of morbidity and mortality, are substantial. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Antiarrhythmic and arrhythmic effects of an Ikr-blocking class III agent. A clinical and electrocardiographic study of almokalant

    Författare :Birgitta Houltz; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Almokalant; class III antiarrhythmic agent; potassium channel blocker; atrial fibrillation; sinus rhythm; conversion; electrocardiographic; QT interval prolongation; T wave morphology; prediction; torsades de pointes; proarrhythmia; QT dispersion; ventric;

    Sammanfattning : The interest in class III drugs has increased over the last decades as being potent antiarrhythmic agents in their mode of action by prolongation of repolarization and with no effect on conduction. Class I antiarrhythmic agents have proven effective in conversion of atrial fibrillation (AF), but may cause serious proarrhythmia. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation : clinical, hormonal and electrophysiological aspects of the maze operation

    Författare :Anders Albåge; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia, associated with significant mortality and morbidity, due to hemodynamic impairment and the increased risk of stroke. Traditional pharmacological treatment may be insufficient or cause intolerable side-effects. LÄS MER
