Rate Control in AF
• AFFIRM trial
• Resting HR ≤80 bpm or averaging ≤100 bpm on
ambulatory monitoring, without a rate >100% of the
maximum age-adjusted predicted exercise heart rate
• RACE II trial:
• Lenient (resting HR <110 bpm) vs strict (resting HR <80
bpm).
• Symptoms.
• Comorbidities.
• Valvular vs non valvular.
• LV systolic dysfunction.
• Heart failure.
• Pre-excitation.
