Atrial Fibrillation Defined
An irregular heart rhythm caused by an uncontrolled or chaotic contraction of the atria, the upper chambers of the heart. (See How the Heart Works: Heart Chambers.) This is a common rhythm problem after injury, surgery or irritability of the heart muscle. In some cases, the heart rhythm may return to normal by itself or with medication. Cardioversion may also be done by a physician to return the heart to its regular rhythm. (Read more)
