Great visual of the process of Atrial Fibrillation (AFib) in your heart ❤️⚡️ Normally, the sinoatrial (SA) node is what controls the heart's rhythm. In AFib, this is not the case. Learn about the process of AFib and more in this AFib crash course now available on our YouTube: https://youtu.be/BlMpbqwe2Q8 Thank you to Matt from @scope_education_ for this video, and stay tuned for more! . . . . . #atrialfibrillation #afib #arrhythmia #heartrhythm #cardiology #electrophysiology #ECG #patienteducati

Atrial Fibrillation (AFib) vs. Normal Rhythm: A Visual Guide ✨@cardiovisual Normal Sinus Rhythm: ✅Synchronized electrical impulse. ✅Clear P-wave before each QRS complex. ✅Efficient pumping = optimal blood flow. Atrial Fibrillation: ❌Chaotic electrical activity in the atria. ❌Missing P-waves. Irregular baseline ("fibrillary waves"). ❌Irregularly irregular ventricular response. ❌Blood pools, increasing stroke risk by 5x. Recognize the rhythm. Prevent the stroke. #Electrophysiology #MedicalSchool #

Atrial fibrillation is the most common heart rhythm disorder, affecting more than 3 million Americans. Find out about the latest treatment options available with our free AFib treatment guide. | Cleveland Clinic
