Early identification of atrial fibrillation in primary care and post-stroke patients

Research output: PhD Thesis › Phd-Thesis - Research and graduation internal

Abstract

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia, especially among the elderly. People with AF are at increased risk of stroke and heart failure. Therefore, it is important to identify AF in an early stage. In this thesis, several methods for early identification of AF were investigated in community and post-stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA) patients.
