Brief Summary:
Adult patients who are diagnosed new onset atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response within 7 days after non-cardiac non-thoracic surgery are enrolled.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Atrial Fibrillation New Onset Atrial Fibrillation Paroxysmal Drug: Amiodarone, diltiazem or esmolol Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
After randomization, they are allocated to rhythm control strategy group or rate control strategy group. In rhythm control strategy group, patients are given amiodarone primarily for the purpose of sinus conversion of cardiac rhythm. In rate control strategy group, patients are given diltiazem or esmolol for the purpose of rate control. the rate of sinus conversion within 48 hours after treatment are compared.
