Atrial Fibrillation Resource

Atrial fibrillation (Afib) currently affects more than four million Europeans, and prevalence increases with age (ref. 1-3). Optimizing Afib management in an aging population is becoming an important healthcare issue. Afib increases the risk of stroke, reduces quality of life both directly and indirectly, and is responsible for significant healthcare costs (ref. 4-11).


 

This site has been established as an educational resource for all healthcare professionals involved in the management of patients with Afib, and provides a range of resources focusing on the latest debates and developments in the field.
