	* Atrial fibrillation - (Disease): Definition (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		Atrial fibrillation is often caused by changes in your heart that occur with age or as a result of heart disease or high blood pressure.
		Atrial fibrillation causes a rapid and irregular heartbeat,...
		Atrial fibrillation is a risk factor for arterial embolism due to the release of blood clots from the fibrillating heart.

		Depending on the arrhythmia's duration rate, degree of regularity and its effect on blood flow and blood pressure, it may be either insignificant or life-threatening.
		Irregularities in the rhythm of the heart can be caused by many things, including disease (e.g., coronary artery disease, diabetes, cardiomyopathy), medications or drugs, an aging heart, metabolic problems; such as thyroid disease, or have no evident cause.
		Symptoms arise from both slow arrhythmias (bradycardia) or fast arrhythmias (tachycardia), but they may differ from person to person.

		Figure 24.2C shows the first cycle of tachycardia; a reentrant circuit (called a circus movement), it does not involve a nonconducting obstacle but, rather, is based on the inhomogeneous recovery properties of the preparation.
		The reason is that the cells in the region of the vortex during one cycle may show a large action potential (hence be part of the circulating wave) in the following cycle.
		In spite of this beat-to-beat variation the reentry in the case of tachycardia is relatively orderly and results in a regular rhythm.
