 note = {Atrial fibrillation is a rhythm disorder, which is most commonly seen in the field ofcardiovascular medicine. Multiple wavelets are persistently meandering in both right and leftatria during atrial fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation occurs with or without organic heart diseases.Once atrial fibrillation occurs, regular heart beat becomes lost and atrial contraction is no longerstrong enough to expel out blood. As a result, blood flow in the left appendage becomes stagnant,forming thrombus in there. The thrombus can be a source of cerebral infarction when it movesfrom the left appendage to the cerebral artery. Cerebral infarction reduces activities of daily lifesubstantially and shortens longevity. Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that theincidence and prevalence of atrial fibrillation increase with age, especially in people older than65 years. Thus, the preventive therapy for atrial fibrillation in the elder is important inmaintaining healthy condition.},
