Jonathan Gordon Best, Robert Bell, Mohammed Haque , Arvind Chandratheva, David John Werring
This article gives an overview of the contemporary diagnosis and management of atrial fibrillation, and the associated evidence base. Where there is uncertainty, we describe our own approach to these areas, while highlighting ongoing research that will likely guide future practice.
