The Effect of Simulated Obstructive Apnoea and Hypopnoea on Heart Rhythm in Patients With Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation
The Effect of Simulated Obstructive Apnoea and Hypopnoea on Heart Rhythm in Patients With Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation
In this randomised controlled cross-over study we will investigate whether intrathoracic pressure changes induced by simulated obstructive apnoea and hypopnoea trigger premature supraventricular and ventricular contractions as well as atrial fibrillation in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
