An atrial fibrillation notification popped up.

房颤提示立马弹了出来。

Okay, so that's because atrial fibrillation means a quivering of your atrium and that predisposes you to clot formation.

那是因为心房颤动意味着心房颤抖这使你容易形成血块。

You would think, okay, I've just read that we need, you know, to give anticoagulation drugs in someone with atrial fibrillation.

你会想，好吧，我刚刚到我们需要，你知道，给心房颤动患者使用抗凝药物。

It found that women with Atrial fibrillation, or AF, were almost twice as likely to have fatal heart disease and strokes.

这次审查发现，有心房颤动病症的妇女发展成致命心脏病和中风的几率是男人的两倍。

In rare situations, an ectopic focus can trigger atrial fibrillation, which is a more serious arrhythmia where the atria essentially just quiver.

罕见情况下，异位起搏点会引发心房颤动，这是为严重的心律失常，心房基本上只能颤动（不能正常收缩）。

They found that drinking coffee did not result in more premature atrial contractions — the early heart beats associated with atrial fibrillation.

他们发现，喝咖啡并没有导致多的房性早搏——与房颤相关的心脏过早搏动。

Also an electrocardiogram might have changes such as a prolonged QT, prolonged ST segment, and arrhythmias, like torsade de pointes and atrial fibrillation.

心电图也可能会发生变化，例如QT延长、ST段延长，还有心律失常，比如尖端扭转和房颤。

Absence of P waves and presence of irregular narrow QRS complexes are the hallmark of atrial fibrillation.

无P波和不规则窄QRS波是心房颤动的特征。

On an ECG, atrial fibrillation is characterized by absence of P-waves and irregular narrow QRS complexes.

ECG上，心房颤动的特征是没有P波和不规则的窄QRS波群。

But research has shown that having too many of these beats puts you at risk of atrial fibrillation, which is a dangerously irregular, rapid heart beat.

但研究表明，这类心跳过多会造成房颤的风险，而房颤是一种危险的不规则快速心跳。

At Queen Mary University of London, Caroline Roney is using virtual models to find better ways to treat atrial fibrillation.

伦敦玛丽女王大，卡罗琳·罗尼正使用虚拟模型寻找治疗心房颤动的好方法。

The most common complication of atrial fibrillation, however, is the formation of blood clots in the atria.

然而，房颤最常见的并发症是心房形成血栓。

Apple Watch can now screen your heart rhythm in the background, and it sends you a notification if it detects an irregular rhythm that appears to be atrial fibrillation.

苹果手表现能后台监测你的心律，当它监测到你的心律不规则或有心房纤颤时，它会向你发出提醒。

If an ectopic focus is triggering atrial fibrillation, radiofrequency ablation can be done, which is where radiofrequency waves are used to destroy the tissue that's causing the ectopic heartbeat.

如果异位起搏点引发了心房颤动，就需要做射频消融了，即利用射频波破坏导致异位心搏的组织。

Driven by haphazard electrical signals in the upper heart, atrial fibrillation is the most common form of cardiac arrhythmia, affecting about 1.4m people in Britain.

心房颤动是由心脏上部随机电信号驱动的，是心律失常最常见的形式，影响着英国约 140 万人。

Also, though, blood thinners can be prescribed instead if someone has an abnormal heart rhythm like atrial fibrillation, since clots are more likely to occur in the heart and travel to the brain.

如果患者有房颤等心律失常时，也可以用抗凝剂代替，因为这些患者中，血栓容易心脏形成并播散至脑部。

Researchers at Queen Mary University of London already use computer simulations of the hearts of individual patients to evaluate different treatments for atrial fibrillation, a common disorder.

伦敦玛丽皇后大的研究人员已经使用个体患者心脏的计算机模拟来评估心房颤动（一种常见疾病）的不同治疗方法。

Atrial fibrillation is caused by multiple electrical impulses that are initiated randomly from many ectopic sites in and around the atria, commonly near the roots of pulmonary veins.

房颤是由多个电脉冲引起的，这些电脉冲是从心房和周围的许多异位部位随机发起的，通常肺静脉根部附近。

In atrial fibrillation, electrical impulses are initiated randomly from many other sites called ectopic sites in and around the atria, commonly near the roots of pulmonary veins.

房颤时，心房和心房周围的许多异位起搏点（通常是肺静脉根部附近）随机产生电脉冲。

One American study in 2018 found that hospital admissions for atrial fibrillation (AFib), a common type of irregular heartbeat, go up around the time of DST transition in the spring.

2018 年的一项美国研究发现， 春季夏令时过渡期间， 因心房颤动 ( AFib)（ 一种常见的心律不齐类型） 入院的人数有所增加。
