In addition to well-documented causes of atrial fibrillation, recent research has found a number of ways this condition can occur. Fortunately, some of these recently found causes are quite preventable.
Persistent Afib is a sustained pattern of atrial fibrillation that does not return to normal by itself. A person is usually said to have persistent atrial fibrillation if their heart rate does not return to normal sinus rhythm within 7 days when not treated. Persistent afib is a when the abnormal heartbeat continues until it is returned to normal by some form of treatment.
