Keeping the Beat: New Treatments for Atrial Fibrillation 5/23

May 23, 2011

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a serious heart condition that affects millions of people in the United States. AF is a quivering of the heart or irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia) that may dramatically affect patients’ quality of life and significantly increase a patient’s risk for stroke. Patients with AF may often struggle with debilitating symptoms, including fatigue, loss of energy, shortness of breath, palpitations, rapid heart action, light headedness and chest discomfort.

Join Mass General/North Shore Center for Outpatient Care cardiologists Conor Barrett, MD, Nathan Van Houzen, MD, Andrew Kemper, MD, and Denise Hirsch, MD, to learn more about AF and what we can do today to treat it effectively.
