Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (PAF) Overview

Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) constitutes a form of cardiac arrhythmia distinguished by irregular and frequently rapid atrial contractions. Atrial fibrillation (AF) entails the disruption of coherent electrical signaling that orchestrates the heart's rhythmicity, culminating in an accelerated and erratic heart rate. The "paroxysmal" descriptor pertains to the sporadic manifestation of this ailment, denoting the abrupt onset and cessation of episodes of irregular cardiac activity. The clinical manifestations of PAF exhibit notable variability. While certain individuals might remain asymptomatic, others may encounter sensations of palpitations, rapid or erratic heartbeat, vertigo, dyspnea, fatigue, and thoracic discomfort. In certain instances, untreated PAF might give rise to severe complications such as stroke, particularly if the condition is not subjected to intervention. Predisposing Factors:

• Age-linked fibrotic changes in cardiac tissue
• Diabetes mellitus
• Obesity
• Metabolic syndrome
• Obstructive sleep apnea
• Chronic kidney disease
• Vigorous physical exercise
• Genetic predisposition

AF's fundamental mechanism is predicated upon a multifaceted interplay between inciting factors and a conducive substrate. Inciting factors are accountable for initiating the arrhythmic episode, while the substrate sustains the ongoing arrhythmia. Inciting factors emerge when the action potential triggers after-depolarizations of sufficient magnitude to override the recuperating repolarization process. This after-depolarization may induce additional systolic contractions but is inadequate to uphold persistent arrhythmia. However, the impulses arising from such extra contractions are discharged at a heightened frequency. Upon impinging on myocardial tissue characterized by varying excitability or refractory periods, these impulses give rise to functionally obstructive electrical barriers. Consequently, re-entry circuits manifest, subsequently engendering fresh impulse waves that propagate additional re-entry circuits, thereby perpetuating the persistence of the arrhythmia by surmounting these barriers. The prevalent locus for ectopic foci and initiation of inciting factors is the muscular sleeve of the left atrium extending into the pulmonary vein. Myocardial cells within this region exhibit a diminished refractory period relative to neighboring myocardium in patients free from AF. Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) carried out during catheter ablation procedures for AF seeks to insulate this region from the contiguous myocardium, thus thwarting further propagation of AF. The diagnostic approach for PAF conventionally entails electrocardiographic (ECG or EKG) recordings, capturing the heart's electric patterns. Therapeutic strategies for PAF are oriented toward heart rate regulation, restoration of normal rhythm, and mitigation of underlying risk factors. The absence of appropriate intervention could subject paroxysmal atrial fibrillation to the risk of complications, notably an elevated susceptibility to stroke. This peril emanates from the potential for clot formation within the atria, subsequent embolization to the cerebral vasculature, precipitating a stroke.
