BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiac arrhythmia that increases the risk
of thromboembolic events. Anticoagulation therapy to prevent AF-related stroke has been …

The P wave indices of maximum duration and dispersion have received increasing attention
and have been examined in a broad range of clinical settings. The ECG, as a …

Background: Detection of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) in acute ischemic stroke
patients poses diagnostic challenge. The aim of this study was to predict the presence of …

Background: Although previous studies have documented a variety of electrocardiogram
(ECG) abnormalities in obesity, P‐wave alterations, which represent an increased risk for …

Background: P‐wave indices of maximum P‐wave duration and P‐wave dispersion have
been examined in a broad array of cardiovascular and noncardiovascular disease states …

Introduction: P-wave duration (PWD) is an electrocardiographic (ECG) marker reflecting
atrial conduction, and studies have shown that its prolongation is associated with atrial …

Prevention is important in the case of the most common sustained arrhythmia-atrial
fibrillation, with the intention of obtaining both medical and economic benefits …

PVI Alone in Patients with Persistent AF. Introduction: Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) alone
has been thought to be insufficient in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (PersAF). We …

Background Few studies have been performed on P wave indices in athletes. The aim of this
study was to determine the behaviour of maximum P wave duration (Pmax), minimum P …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. Pharmacologic and non-
pharmacologic rhythm control strategies impact on AF-related symptoms, while leaving …
