Anticoagulation in patients with low-burden atrial fibrillation: new evidence focusing on device-detected AF
Paulus Kirchhoff, professor of cardiology and electrophysiology from Hamburg, explains device-detected atrial fibrillation and why short, device-recorded episodes differ from ECG-diagnosed AF. He outlines why stroke risk is lower with device AF, how recent trials affect anticoagulation thinking, and which patients with vascular disease or higher AF burden might benefit from treatment.
