Rate control in AF - which agent works best?
Cardiologists Dr. Michiel Rienstra and Dr. Tim Koldenhof discuss a study comparing beta-blockers and calcium channel blockers for AF rate control. They highlight the effectiveness of both agents, the high incidence of bradycardia with beta blockers, and the importance of monitoring and potentially switching medications for better outcomes.
