Valvular Atrial Fibrillation (VAF) is a distinct category of atrial fibrillation that manifests in individuals with significant heart valve disorders. The abnormal electrical signals within the atria, or upper chambers of the heart, lead to irregular and often accelerated heartbeats. The link between VAF and valvular heart diseases, such as mitral stenosis or the presence of a mechanical heart valve, underscores the complexity of this condition. The management of VAF requires a nuanced approach, taking into account both the atrial fibrillation and the underlying valvular pathology. Healthcare professionals navigate treatment strategies based on factors like the severity of the valve disease, the overall health status of the patient, and individual considerations unique to each case. Striking a balance between addressing atrial fibrillation and managing valvular issues is crucial for effective care.
