Angiotensin receptor blockers and atrial fibrillation

The recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) after cardioversion may be partially related to a process known as remodeling – the electrical, mechanical and structural properties of the atrial tissue are altered in a progressive and irreversible manner resulting in a more favourable substrate for AF. From animal models, blockade of the rennin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) has […]
