The Influence of Left Atrial Diameter and the Left Atrial Refractory Period of Valsartan Combined with Amiodarone in Patients with Paroxysmal ;Atrial Fibrillation
Abstract：Objective:To observe the effect of Valsartan combined with Amiodarone therapy to maintain sinus rhythm of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Method:125 cases with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation were randomly divided into the experimental group(n=63) and the control group(n=62),they were treated with amiodarone,but the experimental group was increased Valsartan 80 mg every day;the treatment duration was 18 months,left atrial diameter and left atrial refractory period before and after the treatment of 18 months were compared in two groups.Result:After 18 months of treatment,the left atrial diameter in the control group was bigger than that in the experimental group,there was statistical significance(P<0.05),left atrial refractory period in the experimental group was bigger than that in the control group,there was statistical significance(P<0.05).Conclusion:The treatment with Valsartan combined with Amiodarone can reduce the increase of left atrial diameter and extend the left atrial refractory period.
