Importance of Screening for AF and Hypertension in the Fight Against Stroke
Author(s): Gerhard Hindricks , Faizel Osman , Keitaro Senoo , et al Added: 1 year ago
This video series page covers content associated with Atrial Fibrillation.AFib is associated with a 5x greater risk of stroke, however with effective treatment, the risk of stroke can be reduced.¹ The lifetime risk for AFib is 1 in 3 individuals² and it often occurs with hypertension. Early detection is key, to allow for prompt and satisfactory disease management to not only control symptoms but… View more

EHRA 25: The CONSIDERING-AF Study
Author(s): Emma Sandgren Added: 1 month ago
EHRA 2025 - Outcomes from model screening for atrial fibrillation (AF) show the combination of a risk prediction model and long-term electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring is superior to standard of care in detecting new cases of AF in a high-risk population aged 65 years or older. In the risk prediction model arm, the incidence of AF after six months was significantly higher than the incidence in… View more
