Atrial fibrillation is a common cardiac arrhythmia with rapid and irregular atrial activity. Instead of uniformly contracting as one chamber, the atrial compartment fibrillates. Several studies have demonstrated that this arrhythmia contributes substantially to cardiac morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this review is to describe the pathophysiology and clinical management of this arrhythmia.
心房颤动是一种常见的心律失常，具有快速且不规则的心房活动。心房不是作为一个整体均匀收缩，而是颤动。几项研究表明，这种心律失常对心脏发病率和死亡率有很大影响。本文旨在描述这种心律失常的病理生理学和临床管理。
