Atrial fibrillation is generally caused by many factors, such as diet or disease. Dietary factors lead to atrial fibrillation, which generally means that external stimuli affect atrial fibrillation. This situation can generally be alleviated by adjusting diet and solving the problem of stimulating the heart. However, atrial fibrillation caused by disease factors always occurs, usually caused by heart valve disease or hypertension. This kind of atrial fibrillation is a great threat to the body. If it is not treated in time, it will affect the heart function.
1, paroxysmal symptoms
The symptoms of atrial fibrillation are general, which is directly related to the type of atrial fibrillation. The most typical feature of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is that it does not last for a long time, only appears for a while, and then disappears immediately. This symptom has the least impact on the body and is not easy to cause harm during the onset of atrial fibrillation. Generally, atrial fibrillation less than two days belongs to paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, which can generally heal itself without too much treatment.
2. Persistent atrial fibrillation
Persistent atrial fibrillation is characterized by its easy occurrence of persistent attacks. Once it exceeds 48 hours, it is persistent atrial fibrillation, which will do harm to the body and affect the heart function to some extent. Persistent atrial fibrillation is likely to be cured if it can attack at an early stage. However, if it continues to develop into persistent atrial fibrillation, it will further aggravate and seriously affect cardiac function, and it is not easy to cure.
3. Permanent atrial fibrillation
Permanent atrial fibrillation, that is, atrial fibrillation lasts for more than one year. At this time, atrial fibrillation is difficult to treat and cannot return to normal heart rate, so it is defined as permanent atrial fibrillation. Permanent atrial fibrillation needs long-term treatment, and other complications that may be caused by atrial fibrillation need to be considered. Once it causes heart failure, it may even lead to death.
4. Typical performance
The typical manifestations of atrial fibrillation are the clinical symptoms that are easy to appear in various types of atrial fibrillation. These symptoms are mainly rapid heartbeat and weakness, and sometimes there is obvious compression in the precordial area, which patients will think is a sign of tightness in the heart and shortness of breath. In severe cases, it may even lead to dyspnea, but this dyspnea will not last long. Some people may have abnormal heart problems when they have difficulty breathing, and some people may have obvious improvement after a period of attack.
If thrombosis occurs during atrial fibrillation, it is the most dangerous situation, because when atrial fibrillation occurs, the atrium will lose its normal systolic function. If there is a thrombus, it may flow to the whole body, leading to the symptoms of embolism in various parts. For example, a common stroke, limb arterial embolism may lead to hemiplegia, limb arterial embolism requires amputation to ensure life safety. Therefore, it is necessary to deal with atrial fibrillation in time to avoid causing too much harm.
