atrial fibrillation

Preferred Label : atrial fibrillation;

MeSH definition : Abnormal cardiac rhythm that is characterized by rapid, uncoordinated firing of electrical impulses in the upper chambers of the heart (HEART ATRIA). In such case, blood cannot be effectively pumped into the lower chambers of the heart (HEART VENTRICLES). It is caused by abnormal impulse generation.;

MeSH synonym : fibrillations, auricular; fibrillations, atrial; atrial fibrillations; fibrillation, atrial; fibrillation, auricular; auricular fibrillation; auricular fibrillations;

CISMeF acronym : AFIB;

DeCS synonym : Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation; Familial Atrial Fibrillation; Persistent Atrial Fibrillation;

MeSH hyponym : Atrial Fibrillation, Persistent; Atrial Fibrillations, Persistent; Fibrillation, Persistent Atrial; Fibrillations, Persistent Atrial; Persistent Atrial Fibrillations; Atrial Fibrillation, Familial; Atrial Fibrillations, Familial; Familial Atrial Fibrillations; Fibrillation, Familial Atrial; Fibrillations, Familial Atrial; Atrial Fibrillation, Paroxysmal; Atrial Fibrillations, Paroxysmal; Fibrillation, Paroxysmal Atrial; Fibrillations, Paroxysmal Atrial; Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillations;

CISMeF hyponym : familial atrial fibrillation;

MeSH annotation : do not confuse with ATRIAL FLUTTER;
