The effect of pretreatment with renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockers on cardioversion success and acute recurrence of atrial fibrillation

Summary Background: Renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system (RAS) may be activated during atrial fibrillation (AF). It is unclear whether RAS inhibition may facilitate cardioversion from AF and may prevent acute recurrence of AF (ARAF). We thus investigated the effect of pretreatment with RAS blockers...
