It's good that Atrial Fibrillation (A Fib) could not be induced. Sometimes, A Fib is caused by some other factor such as a high blood pressure, excessive salt intake, stress, etc. A Fib can be intermittent. If one has had A Fib, continue follow-up with one's cardiologist to enable intermittent monitoring for a recurrence and a decision of whether or not to be treated with an oral anticoagulant.
