Abstract:
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia presenting in the daily clinical practice [1]. In the last 50 years, AF prev- alence and incidence have been shown to constantly increase, progres- sively becoming a worldwide healthcare issue, with relevant public health expenditure, both in terms of clinical management and conse- quences related to the main clinical adverse events related to AF (i.e. stroke, major bleeding, cardiovascular events) [1,2].
