Zusammenfassung
Die primäre Behandlung des Vorhofflimmerns ist auch zu Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts eine Domäne der medikamentösen Therapie. Es ist davon auszugehen, daß von den Patienten, die wegen symptomatischen Vorhofflimmerns den Arzt aufsuchen, mehr als 90% primär eine medikamentöse Behandlung erhalten. Auch bei Anwendung interventioneller Behandlungsformen kommt in Form der sogenannten Hybridtherapie [17] häufig eine medikamentöse Begleittherapie zum Tragen, so daß auf absehbare Zeit an der Dominanz pharmakologischer Therapieansätze kaum Änderungen zu erwarten sind.
