Afib is not to serious in most cases. There can be many causes sometime stimulates, sometimes there is underlying conditions and sometimes there is no apparent cause at all. Most people are asymptomatic and never know they have it until they discover it on accident.

I stress tested an athlete one time that was an elite level endurance runner. We did a simple ECG on her and found out that she had no P wave at all. That means she didnt have any electrical activity during the correct time that the SA node of the heart should have fired. It was delayed and masked in by the ventricals so we did a few more test and found that she would go into afib when her heart rate was elevated. It was one of the craziest things I have seen but i guess not unheard of according to my mentor.

EXACTLY....probably nothing...but still keep an eye on it...sometimes it can cause blood clots...not to scare you...can be fixed by taking a blood thinner...but that is really with chronic afib...just get routine check ups...

You actually said something that is of great clinical significance. I am impressed you thought of it. I didnt even think about it and I did CVP physiology daily throughout gradschool. Damn overpriced education

. I am impressed you thought of it.

ill take that as a compliment....

so anyway...why wouldn't have I though of it....if you have to pm me the answer due to privacy feel free...

It was a compliment, It takes some knowledge of the subject to remember that when the atria go into AFIB that the blood in the chambers are not moving. When blood stops moving and pools it coagulates forming clots. When these clots move the can go to the lungs and become lodged and cause a Pulmonary embolism or if they are in the left atria will go into the systemic circulation and could potentially cause problems as well. I am just impressed is all, no hidden meanings.
