Three Cardiac Electrophysiologists  explain atrial fibrillation and explain the methods
of treating this issue. Beginning with explaining common rhythm issues and giving the statistics that atrial fibrillation affects 2.4 million Americans. Then the movement of the blood into and out of the heart is shown with the help of animation. Organized electrical impulse drives the rhythmic contraction is similar to a spark plug to a vehicle.

There is only one medicine when there are risk factors: Warfarin, also called as Coumadin . There is also a surgical procedure to treat atrial fibrillation. It is called Catheter Ablation.
