The Registry of the German Competence NETwork on Atrial Fibrillation: patient characteristics and initial management

Structured PICO

Population

Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) in Germany

In a German AF registry, oral anticoagulation use was high, but rate and rhythm control management frequently deviated from current guidelines.

Abstract

This registry provides insight into current medical care of patients with AF in Germany. The use of oral anticoagulation in eligible patients was among the highest reported, whereas decisions on rate and rhythm control often do not follow current recommendations.
