Association of Burden of Atrial Fibrillation With Risk of Ischemic Stroke in Adults With Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation: The KP-RHYTHM Study
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "JAMA Cardiology"
DOI: 10.1001/jamacardio.2018.1176
Abstract: Importance Atrial fibrillation is a potent risk factor for stroke, but whether the burden of atrial fibrillation in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation independently influences the risk of thromboembolism remains controversial. Objective To determine if… read more here.
