What are the symptoms of the atrial fibrillation triad?

Patient's question:

Hospital ECG conclusion: Atrial fibrillation. Echocardiogram suggests mild mitral regurgitation, moderate tricuspid regurgitation, and mild pulmonary valve regurgitation. Holter ECG shows frequent premature beats (ventricular and atrial). Elevated myocardial enzymes. What kind of help is needed: What is the triple syndrome of atrial fibrillation?

Doctor's answer:

The atrial fibrillation triad refers to irregularly weak or strong second heart sounds, pulse deficit, and irregular heart rhythm. If frequent atrial fibrillation is present, it is recommended to start anticoagulation treatment early. Early thrombolysis is not advisable. It is best to have a dynamic electrocardiogram performed at the hospital to determine the nature of the condition. Otherwise, if a thrombus forms, leading to a stroke, it would be too late. In necessary cases, a heart stent can also be implanted. If there are symptoms of blackouts or fainting, early treatment should be initiated.
