Saluti a te, cara, e buona giornata; aggiungo solo che il doc da cui ho tratto precedentemente la frase in inglese riportata viene proprio dal Regno Unito, :-))
Ivana UK (asker) Sep 9, 2010:
Ciao Anna Rosa e grazie mille per la conferma :)
ARS54 Sep 9, 2010:
Sto traducendo un testo sullo stesso argomento, e posso confermare: è corretta l'interpretazione - di medico, peraltro - di Panayotis, spesso la trovi in inglese come "tachy-AF" -> "This AF can take the the form of Fast (Tachy AF) or Slow (Brady AF)". Buon lavoro, Anna Rosa
Ivana UK (asker) Sep 9, 2010:
Hi Panagiotis, Now you've got me thinking - was thinking this might be Focal AT (focal atrial tachycardia) but maybe not. Will re-open question so you can insert this as an answer :)
Panagiotis Andrias (X) Sep 9, 2010:
La fibrillazione atriale puoi sia cardiovertirla elettricamente che farmacologicamente. Se la frequenza è alta, detto in gergo, tachi-fibrillazione atriale, allora tendenzialmente si tende a cardiovertirla elettricamente specie se ti dà scompensi emodinamici

AF with RVR

-Ciao, Ivana. FA sarebbe fibrillazione atriale, mentre quel tachi- si riferisce alla risposta/frequenza ventricolare...
-Volendo, si potrebbe pure parlare di rapid atrial fibrillation, ma a mio avviso meglio parlare chiaro... :-)

Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained clinically significant arrhythmia.1 The majority of patients with a rapid ventricular response rate (rapid atrial fibrillation) do not require immediate electrical cardioversion.

Remember: Do not use the terms "slow" and "fast" atrial fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation is always fast (300-600 per minute)."
