Abstract:The hemodynamic response during the transition from the supine to standing position in idiopathic atrial fibrillation (AF) patients is not completely understood. This study aimed to analyze the hemodynamic changes that occur during the head‐up tilt test in idiopathic AF patients. We investigated the hemodynamic changes during the head‐up tilt test with impedance cardiography in 40 AF patients (12 with AF rhythm‐AFr and 28 with sinus rhythm‐AFsr) and 38 non‐AF controls. Patients with AFr had attenuated SVI decr… Show more
