Can anyone please let somebody know me What is fibrillation?
Answers:
That's not very nice the_spleen62. Maybe they be looking for something a little more reliable than a Wiki entry...this one is pretty good, but for medical purposes - I would look at Web MD or medicinenet. Source(s): http://www.medicinenet.com/atrial_fibrillation/article.htm

Seriously, you can't even google "fibrillation"?

EDIT - Mommyagain, she's looking for a more reliable answer than wikipedia? So she asks on HERE, a place more full of 12 year old dumbasses than anywhere else? For something as basic as fibrillation wikipedia really is a fine source, you hardly call for a medical journal to understand fibrillation.
Hmmm........are you asking these questions about fibrillation from a 'smart phone' while you are sitting an exam for certification?
Fibrillation commonly refers to the rapid, irregular, and unsynchronized contraction of the muscle fibers of the heart. There are two primary classes of fibrillation: atrial fibrillation and ventricular fibrillation. Source(s): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrillatio…
Fibrillation is an uncontrolled twitching or quivering of muscle fibers (fibrils).
Atrial fibrillation/flutter is a heart rhythm disorder (arrhythmia). It usually involves a rapid heart rate, in which the upper heart chambers (atria) are stimulated to contract surrounded by a very disorganized and abnormal manner.
When it occur in the lower chambers of the heart, it is called ventricular fibrillation. During ventricular fibrillation, blood is not removed from the heart.
As a result it may form clots and if the clot become lodged in an artery in the brain, a stroke may result. It may also result in sudden cardiac departure. Source(s): http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/…

It's when your heartbeat isn't surrounded by sync with the 'lub-dub' action/sound.
