Definition of fibrillation in English English dictionary
- The rapid, irregular, and unsynchronized contraction of the muscle fibers of the heart
- Rapid, uncoordinated contractions of individual heart muscle fibers The heart chamber involved can't contract all at once and pumps blood ineffectively, if at all
- Cardiac, heart flutter and irregular beats
- When the heart muscle fibers contract individually and quickly disabling the heart from pumping effectively
- A heart rhythm that occurs when the heart muscle fibers contract individually
- act or process of forming fibrils muscular twitching involving individual muscle fibers acting without coordination
- rapid contractions of the heart muscles
- waves with rates of 300-400 times per minute causing mere fibrillation of cardiac muscle; can occur with atria or with ventricles
- A condition in which a very rapid, unsychronized, beating of different parts of the heart occur Essentially the parts quiver, rather than beat together The most serios fibrillation is "V-Fib" (Ventricular Fibrilation), where the main pumping chambers of the heart quiver, rather than pump blood The fix for this is electrical defibrillation, using a device called a defibrillator (the paddles you see on TV)
- The state of being reduced to fibers
- Fibrillation is a very fast and irregular succession of stimuli, leading to the disappearance of any coordinated and effective contraction of auricular cardiac fibres (auricular fibrillation) or ventricular fibres (ventricular fibrillation is equivalent to heart failure) Frequency : The number of identical and regular cycles during one second Frequency is expressed in Hertz (Hz) It is the inverse of the period which is expressed in seconds : 1 Hz = 1/s
- the longitudinal splitting of a fibre or filament to give either micro-fine surface hairs or a complete breakdown into sub-micron fibres In fabrics for apparel, fibrillation can be used to create a variety of surface textures and attractive aesthetics In hydroentangled nonwoven fabrics, the fibrils make entanglement easier and can give added strength to the fabric
- rapid uncoordinated contractions of the heart muscle occurring when the individual muscle fibres take up independent irregular contractions
- unsynchronized quivering
- —Rapid, inefficient contraction of muscle fibers of the heart caused by disruption of nerve impulses
- Rapid, uncoordinated contraction (squeezing) of the heart muscle
- Rapid, uncoordinated contractions of individual heart muscle fibres The heart chamber involved can't contract all at once and pumps blood ineffectively, if at all See Atrial Fibrillation and Ventricular Fibrillation
- -Abnormal uncontrolled rapid contraction of the fibers in the heart When the process involves the two upper chambers of the heart (the atria), the condition is called "atrial fibrillation " When it involves the lower, ventricular chambers, the condition is called "ventricular fibrillation "
- very rapid, irregular heartbeat which is fatal unless reversed
- A structural change occurring in the walls of chemical pulp fibres during beating
- muscular twitching involving individual muscle fibers acting without coordination
- Rapid, uncoordinated contractions of chambers of the heart
- A nonsynchronous contraction of muscle tissue, with individual cells firing at their own rate Fibrillation can be isolated to the atria or the ventricles Ventricle fibrillation is not compatible with life A heart in fibrillation has been described as looking and feeling like a "bag of worms" Press the "back" button to return to where you came from
- {i} twitching of the muscles (Medicine)
- Abnormally rapid, inefficient contractions of the atria or ventricles Ventricular fibrillation is life-threatening
- act or process of forming fibrils
- atrial fibrillation
- A cardiac arrhythmia (abnormal heart rhythm) that involves the two upper chambers (atria) of the heart
- ventricular fibrillation
- Condition where the cardiac muscle is contracted irregularly and rapidly
- atrial fibrillation
- (Tıp, İlaç) 1. Atrial fibrillation (AF or A-fib) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia (abnormal heart rhythm) and involves the two upper chambers (atria) of the heart. Its name comes from the fibrillating (i.e., quivering) of the heart muscles of the atria, instead of a coordinated contraction.2. Very rapid uncoordinated contractions of the atria of the heart resulting in a lack of synchronism between heartbeat and pulse beat —called also auricular fibrillation
- atrial fibrillation
- fibrillation of the muscles of the atria of the heart
- atrial fibrillation
- Irregular rhythm (arrhythmia) of contraction of the atria (upper heart chambers). The most common major arrhythmia, it may result as a consequence of increased fibrous tissue in the aging heart, of heart disease, or in association with severe infection. If it continues, it can permit formation of blood clots, which can block blood flow to essential organs. Emergency treatment consists of drugs such as beta-blockers or digitalis, which slow the heart's action, and anticoagulants. In addition, atrial fibrillation can be interrupted by administering electric shocks (defibrillation). See also ventricular fibrillation
- fibrillate
- To make irregular, rapid movements
- fibrillate
- {f} convulse, quiver, twitch (Medicine)
- fibrillate
- make fine, irregular, rapid twitching movements; "His heart fibrillated and he died"
- fibrillate
- make fine, irregular, rapid twitching movements; "His heart fibrillated and he died
- ventricular fibrillation
- An often fatal form of arrhythmia characterized by rapid, irregular fibrillar twitching of the ventricles of the heart in place of normal contractions, resulting in a loss of pulse. Uncoordinated contraction of the muscle fibres of the heart's ventricles (see arrhythmia). Causes include heart attack, electric shock, anoxia, abnormally high potassium or low calcium in the blood, and digitalis or epinephrine poisoning (see drug poisoning). Death soon follows if circulation is not restored with electric shocks (defibrillation) or drugs supplemented by chest compressions (as in cardiopulmonary resuscitation). See also atrial fibrillation
- ventricular fibrillation
- fibrillation of heart muscles resulting in interference with rhythmic contractions of the ventricles and possibly leading to cardiac arrest
