We aimed to provide practical recommendations for the screening of subclinical atrial
fibrillation (AF) in patients with ischaemic stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA) of …

Stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is one pillar of the management of
this common arrhythmia. Substantial advances in the epidemiology and associated …

Background: In atrial fibrillation (AF) patients, the presence of symptoms can guide the
decision between rate or rhythm control therapy, but it is still unclear if AF-related outcomes …

Objective The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate the various modalities available for
extended ECG monitoring in the detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) following a cryptogenic …

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) often remains undetected following stroke. Documenting
AF is critical to initiate oral anticoagulation, which has proven benefit in reducing recurrent …

Background Athletes represent a mainly healthy population, which however could be
considered at risk of major arrhythmic events, especially in case of undiagnosed …

In 2014, Hart et al introduced the clinical construct of “embolic stroke of unknown
source”(ESUS). 1 In brief, it describes a subgroup of stroke patients in whom, based on brain …

Embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) represents a heterogeneous subgroup of
patients with cryptogenic stroke, in which despite an extensive diagnostic workup the cause …

Background Although many electrocardiography wearable devices have been released
recently for the detection of atrial fibrillation (AF), there are few studies reporting prospective …

Aims In a recent position paper, the European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA) proposed
an algorithm for the screening and management of arrhythmias using digital devices. In …
