AFIBFL stands for "Atrial Fibrillation with Bundle Branch Block." Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a condition characterized by abnormal electrical rhythms in the upper chambers of the heart, known as the atria. Instead of the heart beating in a regular and coordinated manner, the atria quiver or fibrillate, leading to an irregular and often rapid heartbeat.
Bundle branch block (BBB) refers to a delay or blockage in the electrical signals traveling along the specialized pathways, called the bundle branches, which transmit these signals to the ventricles, the lower chambers of the heart. This delay may result in the ventricles beating out of sync or at a slower rate than normal.
When AF occurs in combination with bundle branch block, it is referred to as AFIBFL. This condition presents a combination of irregular atrial electrical activity and impaired conduction of electrical signals from the atria to the ventricles.
AFIBFL can have various consequences, including an increased risk of complications such as blood clots, stroke, and heart failure. Treatment for AFIBFL often involves managing the underlying causes of the atrial fibrillation, such as high blood pressure or heart disease, as well as potentially correcting the bundle branch block through medications, pacemaker implantation, or other interventions. Close monitoring by healthcare professionals is essential to ensure appropriate management and minimize the risk of complications.
