Recently, Dr. Albers and myself were asked to participate in the “Living with Heart Disease” lecture series sponsored by the American College of Cardiology. I spoke about a very common type of irregular heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation. If you or a family member has suffered from this condition, you may find this presentation helpful, as I discussed the causes, symptoms, and common treatments of this condition. here is a link to a video of my recent presentation.  As always, only a physician who has personally assessed you can give specific advice about your (or your family member’s) condition.

If you want to learn more about atrial fibrillation or many other heart conditions, an excellent resource is the CardioSmart website which we refer to often in our blog.
