Exploring the Link Between Atrial Fibrillation and Heart Health

When it comes to your heart, it's important to work with healthcare providers who have the experience and expertise you need to feel your best. At Mobitz AFib Clinic in Houston, TX, Dr. Alireza Nazeri and the rest of our cardiac care team are here to support your heart health. Here, we'll explore atrial fibrillation and its effect on heart health. 

What Is Atrial Fibrillation?

 Also known as AFib, atrial fibrillation is characterized by an irregular heart rhythm. Often, this rhythm is very rapid and can cause fear or discomfort. When the heart experiences AFib, the upper chambers beat irregularly and become out of sync. 

AFib symptoms differ from person to person, but may include: 

  • Pounding heartbeat
  • Shortness of breath
  • Light-headedness
  • Chest pain
  • Fatigue
  • Feelings of heart palpitations (a fluttering heartbeat)
  • Dizziness

 Some people who experience AFib do not show any noticeable symptoms. The condition can be occasional, persistent, or permanent. 

Typically, AFib is not life-threatening, but it does need proper treatment to ensure that it does not develop into a more serious condition. 

AFib and Heart Health

 AFib can increase the risk of stroke and heart failure and can lead to blood clots. If you believe that you're experiencing an irregular heartbeat, it's important to make an appointment with a cardiologist. 

AFib Treatment

 Thankfully, there are treatment options that can help you reduce or eliminate AFib. Treatment for AFib will differ from person to person, but many people find success with medicine, heart rhythm resets, and/or procedures that help to stop faulty signals from reaching the heart. Your doctor will work with you to understand your symptoms and develop a personalized treatment plan for your needs.
