Lint: atrial-fibrillation

Ranges
warning

"Atrial fibrillation most commonly presents as a tachyarrhythmia, with ventricular rates between 120-130 beats per minute. Defining electrocardiographic features include; an absence of defined P wave, irregularly irregular R-R intervals, and narrow QRS complexes (in the absence of other conduction system pathology) 3."

Line 30:92 · Don't add words such as 'from' or 'between' to describe a range of numbers.
