What are the Symptoms of 心房纤颤?

The most common symptom: a quivering or fluttering heartbeat

心房纤颤, also called AFib or AF, is the most common type of irregular heartbeat. The abnormal firing of electrical impulses causes the atria (the top chambers in the heart) to quiver (or fibrillate). 查看一个 AFib动画.

房颤有不同的类型吗?

心房纤颤有不同的类型. 症状通常是相同的, although the duration of the AFib and underlying reasons for it can help medical practitioners classify the type of AFib problems.

• 阵发性颤 is when the heart returns to a normal rhythm on its own, 或者通过干预, 出现异常的7天内. People who have this type of AFib may have episodes only a few times a year or their symptoms may occur every day. These symptoms are very unpredictable and can often turn into a permanent form of AFib.
• 持久AFib is an irregular rhythm that lasts for longer than seven days. This type of AFib will not return to a normal sinus rhythm on its own and will require some form of treatment.
• 长期以来AFib is when the heart is consistently in an irregular rhythm for longer than 12 months.
• 永久AFib occurs when the condition lasts indefinitely, and the patient and doctor have decided not to continue trying to restore a normal rhythm.
• 非瓣膜性AFib 心房纤颤不是由心脏瓣膜问题引起的吗.

Over a period of time, paroxysmal fibrillation may become more frequent and longer lasting. This sometimes leads to permanent or chronic AFib.

所有类型的心房颤动都会增加你的风险 中风. 即使你没有明显的症状 you are nearly five times more likely to have a 中风 than someone who doesn’t have AFib.

How are 心脏病 symptoms different from AFib symptoms?

Fluttering and palpitations are symptoms of AFib. Those feelings are the key difference between AFib and a 心脏病. But many heart problems have similar warning signs. If you think you may be having a 心脏病, 不要延迟. Get emergency help by calling 911 immediately.

A 心脏病 是血液流向心脏的阻塞吗. This often is caused by a clot or buildup of plaque lodging in the coronary artery (a blood vessel that carries blood to part of the heart muscle). A 心脏病 can damage or destroy part of your heart muscle. 有些心脏病发作是突然而剧烈的. Most start slowly, with mild pain or discomfort. Often people affected aren’t sure what's wrong and wait too long before getting help.
