Cardioversion of Atrial Fibrillation with Acupuncture
Conclusions: Acupuncture appears to be solely responsible for the conversion of atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm in this case, as no β-blockers, calcium channel blockers, or antiarrhythmic medicines were administered before the return to sinus rhythm. The antiarrhythmic effect noted may be from centrally mediated autonomic effects or additional mechanisms. Further study will help to define the role of acupuncture in the management of acute arrhythmias.PMID:34239665 | PMC:PMC8236297 | DOI:10.1089/acu.2021.0022

Analysis of the ESC/EACTS 2020 Atrial Fibrillation Guidelines with Perioperative Implications
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia worldwide with an individual lifetime risk of approximately 37% in the United States. Broadly defined as a supraventricular tachyarrhythmia with disorganized atrial activation, AF results in an increased risk of stroke, heart failure (HF), valvular heart disease (VHD), impaired quality of life and confers a significant burden to the health of individuals and society. AF in the perioperative setting is common and a significant source of perioperative morbidity and mortality worldwide.
