Abstract: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common continual arrhythmia in human beings, triggering an increasing variety of deaths and problems. Electrocardiogram (ECG)-based studies recommend that ∼ 1% of the overall population is impacted. This systematic review aimed to describes the published evidence for the pathomechanisms, classification and management of atrial fibrillation (AF) and its consequences. A comprehensive structured literature search was performed using MEDLINE for studies published through October, 2016, that reported on Atrial Fibrilation pathomechanisms , conceqences, classification and treatment . The search terms included each of the following terms individually and in combination: atrial fibrillation, ,classification, treatment . AF is a progressively common and typical arrhythmia that is connected with considerable morbidity and death. Since of the restricted effectiveness of catheter based treatments, specifically for patients with relentless AF, and the considerable morbidity and death connected with surgery for the arrhythmia, medicinal treatment stays the pillar of treatment for most of patients. The optimal treatment technique for patients with consistent AF stays questionable, with some clinicians favouring rhythm control and others rate control.
