Abstract
- Optimized management of atrial fibrillation requires patient-oriented decision making with a multidisciplinary approach. This report incorporates recent authoritative studies to provide detailed recommendations for managing atrial fibrillation in specific clinical settings. The principles of the Atrial fibrillation Better Care (ABC) pathway apply in these clinical settings. In addition, specific considerations are discussed for each of these conditions and populations.
