Atrial Fibrillation, Familial, 4; Atfb4

Description

Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained cardiac rhythm disturbance, affecting more than 2 million Americans, with an overall prevalence of 0.89%. The prevalence increases rapidly with age, to 2.3% between the ages of 40 and 60 years, and to 5.9% over the age of 65. The most dreaded complication is thromboembolic stroke (Brugada et al., 1997).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of atrial fibrillation, see {608583}.
