Article Synopsis
- Atrial fibrillation (AF) significantly increases the risk of cerebrovascular disease, heart failure, and mortality, with a yearly average ischemic stroke incidence of 5% in patients with non-valvular AF.
- One in six ischemic strokes occurs in individuals with AF, highlighting the importance of early detection and intervention to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with this condition.
- A management guide is being developed to provide healthcare professionals with evidence-based recommendations for the diagnosis, risk assessment, and treatment of patients with atrial fibrillation to improve patient care.
