| Abstract | Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common supraventricular arrhythmia with episodes that, in the first stages of the disease, may terminate spontaneously. This fact is referred as paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. The analysis of its termination or maintenance could avoid unnecessary therapy and contribute to take the appropriate decisions on its management. The aim of this work is to study if an AF episode terminates spontaneously or not by analyzing the increase of atrial activity (AA) organization prior to AF termination. The organization varies as a consequence of the decrease in the number of reentries into the atrial tissue. The analysis was carried out noninvasively through the use of surface electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings. Sample entropy was selected as non-linear organization index. It was observed that noise and ventricular residues degrade AA organization estimation performance, therefore the use of selective filtering to get the main atrial wave (MAW) was necessary. Using the MAW organization analysis, that is the signal produced by the main reentry wandering the atrial tissue, 46 out of 50 of the terminating and non-terminating analyzed AF episodes were correctly classified (92%). The obtained outcomes allow to conclude that the dominant atrial frequency, and therefore, the main atrial reentry, contains the most relevant information about spontaneous AF termination. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
