Went to ER with 229 bpm. ECG showed AFw/ RVR. Two shots converted back to sinus rhythm but then dropped down to 30-40s. Have a loop recorder for one year now. In the 30s when I sleep and during the day in the 40-50s. I have had three SVT in the last four months. Paperwork diagnosis said SSS but was not told that by my electrophysiologist. This has been the most informative video I have been able to find. You have told me more in the last hour that I have ever been told in the last two years. Thank you so very much. I'm not a student just one of the individuals with this type of situation. The only medication I'm on is Lisinopril. I choose to take baby aspirin in fear of a stroke. I am not an exerciser because of Rheumatoid arthritis. I'm only 56 but clearly remember in my early twenties, I had two episodes of syncope. Sorry for the rant. Thanks for doing what you do. Not just for your students but for people like me. Stay safe and take care.

Thank you so much

[@linamosquera2616]

You videos are awesome. This was a great video! You should mention that clots are most likely to form in the heart appendage, and LAAO devices are a good intervention for patients who are unable to take OAC

[@NeO47976]

Aspirin is not indicated in patient with Afib

[@tanupriya5962]

I'm gonna like your video ❤❤

[@beastmode7107]

nice

[@aoifeglackin5093]

I have two questions:
What is the reason warfarin is given over DOACs in valvular a.fib? also, in what situations would pharmacological cardioversion be chosen over direct cardioversion? thanks :)

[@CharlieKhan-rd3sw]

For the first part of your question,Warfarin is the only tested drug in valvular afib.I know it may sound strange but it is what it is.Ref Harrison Medicine

[@georginahanna8344]

Does anybody know the difference between MAT and AFib ? because they almost have the same pathophysiology so why does hypoxia cause mat sometimes and afib sometimes??

[@CharlieKhan-rd3sw]

Depends on pathological anatomy
