cardiovascular hospitalizations and deaths with a nurse-led integrated chronic care …

Aims The management of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is often inadequate due to
deficient adherence to the guidelines. A nurse-led AF clinic providing integrated chronic …

Objective A previous randomised trial showed that structured, nurse-led atrial fibrillation (AF)
care is superior to conventional AF care, although further research is needed to determine …

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is a highly prevalent heart rhythm disturbance, often associated with
underlying (cardio) vascular disease. Due to this the management of AF is often complex …

Aims An integrated chronic care programme in terms of a specialized outpatient clinic for
