Atrial fibrillation does not always indicate something serious, but it can sometimes lead to strokes and heart failure if it is left untreated.What are some of the symptoms of atrial fibrillation?A racing heartbeat is one of the first symptoms that people with atrial fibrillation will notice. Other symptoms include: chest pain, lightheadness, shortness of breath and decreased blood pressure. Atrial fibrillation can be classified as being acute or chronic. People who have acute atrial fibrillation experience the symptoms every now and then. The symptoms may last for a few hours, but they usually go away on their own. Those who have chronic atrial fibrillation always have an irregular heartbeat.What are some of the treatments available for atrial fibrillation?A doctor will usually prescribe an anti-arrhythmic medication such as Beta Pace and Tambocor. These medications work by helping the heart maintain a normal rhythm. The doctor may also elect to perform a procedure called electrical cardioconversion. Electrical cardioconversion involves stopping the heart with an electric shock. When the heart starts beating again, its rhythm will be normal. A patient is sedated before an electrical cardioconversion is performed.What can be done to prevent atrial fibrillation?There are a few things that people can do to reduce their risk of developing atrial fibrillation. Caffeine and alcohol beverages have a tendency to trigger this condition. That is why the consumption of those type of beverages should be limited.
