历史
由于心房颤动的诊断需要测量心脏的电活动,直到1874年EdméFélixAlfredVulpian观察到他在犬心中称为“fremissement fibrillaire”的不规则心房电气行为时,才真正描述了房颤。[115]在十八世纪中期,Jean-BaptistedeSénac注意到二尖瓣狭窄患者的扩张,受刺激的心房。[116]与AF相关的不规则脉冲首先由Carl Wilhelm Hermann Nothnagel在1876年记录并称为“谵妄”,声称“这种形式的心律失常导致心跳相互完全不规则。同时,高度个别脉冲波的张力不断变化“。[117]詹姆斯·麦肯齐爵士于1904年提出谵妄与心房收缩丧失的相关性,这反映在颈静脉脉搏波的损失中。[118] Willem Einthoven在1906年发表了第一张显示房颤的ECG。[119] AF的解剖和电学表现与谵妄的不规则脉搏之间的联系是由Carl Julius Rothberger,Heinrich Winterberg和Sir Thomas Lewis于1909年制作的。[120] [121] [122]

Multiple studies have compared pharmacological rate and rhythm strategies but have failed to identify a superior therapy, a finding that extends to patients with HF. ... Antiarrhythmic drug therapy is indicated as first-line therapy for AF that remains symptomatic despite adequate rate control.
