Low-tension electrical injury as a cause of atrial fibrillation: a case report.

Ercan Varol1, Mehmet Ozaydin, Ahmet Altinbas, Abdullah Dogan.   

Abstract

Electrical injury can cause a variety of cardiac arrhythmias. Atrial fibrillation as a result of such injury is fairly rare, however, and is rarer still in cases of low-tension electrical injury. We present the case of a patient who developed acute atrial fibrillation in association with low-voltage electrical injury, which resolved after the intravenous administration of digoxin.
