Arrhythmias & electrophysiology
Comparison of the Latest ESC, ACC/AHA/ACCP/HRS, and CCS Guidelines on the Management of Atrial Fibrillation
Study context
- Population
- Patients with atrial fibrillation
- Comparison
- Lining out these similarities and differences
- Outcome
- Agreement between the 3 guidelines
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
- Because all 3 guidelines refer to almost the same scientific data, their recommendations are undoubtedly largely in agreement
- There are some interesting differences based on different interpretations of the same study, different publication dates, or differences in local conditions and health care resources
