Atrial fibrillation - Information for patients
Atrial fibrillation is the most common heart rhythm disorder, especially in older people. We provide information about the current treatment options.

Early diagnosis and precision treatment of atrial fibrillation in the digital era 12th - 14th October 2021, Hamburg, Germany Scientific Committee Prof Paulus Kirchhof (AFNET; Hamburg, Germany) Prof. Christophe Leclercq (EHRA; Rennes, France) Prof. Renate Schnabel (AFNET; Hamburg, Germany) Prof...
Vorhofflimmern ist die häufigste anhaltende Herzrhythmusstörung. Allein in Deutschland leben rund zwei Millionen Patienten mit Vorhofflimmern. Betroffen sind vor allem ältere Menschen. Aufgrund des demographischen Wandels wird sich die Zahl der Vorhofflimmerpatienten in den nächsten 40 Jahren mehr...
Bei der OCEAN Studie wird untersucht, ob die langfristig erfolgreiche Beseitigung von Vorhofflimmern durch perkutane Katheterablation zu einer Reduzierung von Schlaganfällen führt, so dass eine Langzeitbehandlung mit oralen Antikoagulanzien überflüssig wird.
AFNET aims at improving the treatment of atrial fibrillation. The network initiates and conducts clinical trials and registries (investigator initiated trials IIT). AFNET not only assumes the scientific direction of these studies but also the organizational sponsor responsibilities according to the EU guideline for the application of Good Clinical Practice (GCP).
