A-Fib: Atrial fibrillation is a medical condition describing an abnormal heart rhythm. There are many complications of a-fib. In general, when your heart is in a-fib, it is not functioning at it's normal capacity and is less effective when pumping blood. Also, a-fib can cause turbulent blood flow within your heart which can put you at risk of developing blood clots.
