Gender and AF: Differences and Disparities

Structured PICO

Population

Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF)

This review highlights gender-based disparities in the prevalence, pathogenesis, and management of atrial fibrillation.

Abstract

AF is the most common clinical arrhythmia encountered. A wealth of evidence has improved our ability to diagnose and effectively treat AF. An intriguing aspect of this common disease – gender-based differences – is well recognized, but poorly understood. In this brief review, we will explore the accumulating evidence suggesting a gender-based disparity in the prevalence, pathogenesis and management of AF.
