NCIt synonyms : Atrial Fibrillation by EKG Finding; AFib;

NCIt related terms : ATRIAL FIBRILLATION; AF;

NCIt definition : An electrocardiographic finding of a supraventricular arrhythmia characterized by the replacement of consistent P waves by rapid oscillations or fibrillatory waves that vary in size, shape and timing and are accompanied by an irregularly irregular ventricular response. (CDISC);

Alternative definition : CDISC: An electrocardiographic finding of a supraventricular arrhythmia characterized by the replacement of consistent P waves by rapid oscillations or fibrillatory waves that vary in size, shape and timing and are accompanied by an irregularly irregular ventricular response.; ACC/AHA: an arrhythmia characterized by uncoordinated atrial myocardium due to multiple reentry circuits with consequent deterioration of atrial mechanical function. Instead of intermittently contracting, the atria quiver continuously in a chaotic pattern, causing a totally irregular often tachycardic ventricular rate;
