Supraventricular tachycardia

Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is one of the types that starts suddenly and goes away own on its own . However, patients should still be monitored and treated. Usually, atrial fibrillation is permanent, and medicines or other nonsurgical treatments can’t restore a completely normal heart rhythm.

PAF is defined as AF that terminates spontaneously or with intervention within seven days of onset [4]. “Persistent,” “longstanding persistent,” and “permanent” are terms used for types of AF with episode durations longer than one week .

Paroxysmal AFib: when problems come and go Episodes that have a clear start and stopping point qualify as paroxysmal AFib: when abnormal electrical signals and a fast heart rate begin out of the blue and stop just as suddenly, without any treatment on your part.

In the most serious cases, paroxysmal A-fib can lead to heart failure or a stroke . According to the AHA, people who have A-fib are five times more likely to have a stroke than other people. This is because A-fib affects blood flow around the body. Blood can become static and can clot in the upper chamber of the heart.
