INFORM-AF II-Phase 1 pilot randomised controlled trial evaluating the effect of an atrial fibrillation digital education programme: study protocol.

Aim: To evaluate the effect of a novel, co-designed, digital AF educational program, 'INFORM-AF', to reduce re-hospitalisation of people with AF. The secondary aims are to examine the effect of the intervention on: (a) reducing cardiovascular-related hospitalisation, (b) increasing medication adherence, AF-related knowledge, and Atrial fibrillation (AF)-related quality of life and (c) determining the cost-effectiveness of the intervention.

Background: AF is an increasingly prevalent cardiac arrythmia that involves complex clinical management.
