Atrial fibrillation is the most common chronic cardiac arrhythmia, and is usually associated with other cardiovascular diseases. Atrial fibrillation is characterized by an irregular heartbeat, where the atria may not contract properly. While the disease is not considered life-threatening in itself, atrial fibrillation is one of the leading causes of stroke, with the disease conferring a fivefold increased risk.
