Disorders in the heart's electrical system can lead to arrhythmias, or an abnormal heart rhythm. There are many types of arrhythmias and they're classified by where they occur in the heart and their pattern of abnormality. This segment will explain the arrhythmia known as Atrial Fibrillation.
When diagnosed with atrial fibrillation, the first line treatment that cardiologists typically recommend is medications. However, over time the medications may no longer be effective or may not provide symptom relief. In these cases your health care provider may recommend a heart procedure known as catheter ablation.
