Because the atrial rate is so fast, and the action potentials produced are of such low amplitude, P waves will not be seen on the ECG in patients with atrial fibrillation. At times, the P wave ...

Atrial fibrillation is the most common chronic arrhythmia. It is characterized by erratic atrial electrical activity with atrial rates of 400 to 600 beats per minute. The P wave is absent on the ...

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 70-year old woman with a prior history of asymptomatic atrial fibrillation (AFib). I’ve been in normal sinus rhythm since having two catheter ablations in 2018.

It beats around 60-100 times per minute when you're resting. If you have atrial fibrillation, though, your heart can beat out of rhythm, too fast, or too slow. Untreated AFib might also make you ...
