Abstract

The onset of atrial fibrillation is associated with the development of significant tricuspid regurgitation in the setting of progressive right atrial and tricuspid annular dilatation. This case demonstrates the positive impact on tricuspid regurgitation of cardioversion and rhythm control of atrial fibrillation.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a case report, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
