Thrombotic material in atrial fibrillation(AF) usually develops in the left atrial appendage as a result of decreased flow and stasis, possible endothelial dysfunction and a hypercoagulable state as indicated by increased fibrinogen, D-dimer, thromboglobulin and platelet factor 4 levels.1 In the Framingham Heart Study, the percentage of strokes attributable to AF increases steeply from 1.5 % in…

Clinical research that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and big data may aid the prediction and/or detection of subclinical cardiovascular diseases by providing additional knowledge about disease onset, progression or outcome. Clinical decision-making, disease diagnostics, risk prediction or individualised therapy may be informed by insights obtained from AI algorithms. As health records have…

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, occurring in 1–2 % of the general population and is increasingly prevalent in older people, occurring in about 10 % of over 80 year olds.1 AF is associated with a variety of cardiovascular conditions. The arrhythmia is associated with a five-fold rise in stroke risk and frequently coexists with heart failure, both leading…

The monitoring of atrial fibrillation (AF) can be performed using a great variety of strategies and tools. Strategies range from monitoring only symptomatic AF (e.g., post-catheter ablation with or without surface electrocardiogram [ECG] documentation) to continuously monitoring heart rhythm using implantable pacemakers, implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) or subcutaneous implantable…
