The GPs role in improving AF management

Listen to the episode

Description

In this Healthed lecture, Prof Andrew Sindone explains that detecting atrial fibrillation and commencing anticoagulation therapy is our greatest weapon in preventing stroke. And yet people with this arrhythmia are still going undiagnosed and untreated. Prof Sindone will present the latest evidence of the incidence and prevalence of both AF and stroke, and gives the reasons why the vast majority of AF patients can safely be put on preventive therapy to optimise their chances of a stroke-free future.
