[Atrial fibrillation in three cardiological reference centers in Dakar: Senegal data from the AFRICA register survey].

Introduction: atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac rhythm disorder. Its prevalence is underestimated in Africa, hence the initiation of the Atrial Fibrillation Registry In Countries of Africa (AFRICA). The aim of our study was to describe, within the framework of the AFRICA registry, the epidemiological, clinical, paraclinical, therapeutic and evolutionary aspects of atrial fibrillation (AF) in Africa, particularly in Senegal.
