ABSTRACT

La fibrilación auricular (FA) es la arritmia más frecuente en la práctica clínica. Es responsable de una elevada morbilidad y mortalidad. Un paciente con FA conocida, que sigue tratamiento adecuadamente, y comienza con mareo, debe alertar al Médico de Familia. Un electrocardiograma es fundamental para un correcto diagnóstico: la presencia de una bradicardia en un paciente con FA. Esta situación clínica constituye una causa de derivación hospitalaria no demorable para realizar estudio etiológico y tratamiento adecuado ante la gravedad del cuadro clínico (AU)


Atrial fibrillation (AT) is the most frequent type of arrhythmia in clinical practice. It causes a high rate of morbidity and mortality. A patient with known AF who follows adequate therapy and starts feeling dizzy, should alert his/her GP. An electrocardiogram is essential for correct diagnosis: the presence of bradycardia in a patient with AF. This clinical situation constitutes a non-delayable reason to refer the patient to the hospital in order to carry out an etiologic study and adequate therapy because of the seriousness of this clinical picture (AU)
