Medical - Medical: Cardiology
English term or phrase: swarm about
AF occurs when an extra electrical impulse is generated, commonly from inside or around one of the pulmonary veins, and disrupts the usual organized electrical activity in the atria.
As a result, the electrical activity begins to **swarm about** in the atria in a non-stop, chaotic fashion.

Hola,

El texto es para EE.UU. No me doy cuenta cómo decirlo... ¿Ideas? Es un texto bastante técnico, así que necesito que sea preciso.

¡Muchas gracias!

agree  Chema Nieto Castañón: Propagarse es una lectura formal ajustada. No obstante el original utiliza una expresión más gráfica que técnica. Por ejemplo, la actividad eléctrica comienza a bullir, a multiplicarse en las aurículas de manera continua y caótica
