1. Overall burden of AF associated with higher risk of thromboembolism and ischemic stroke
An analysis of the KP-RHYTHM study, in patients with paroxysmal AF not on anticoagulation, who underwent a 14-day ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring
5 events/690 p-y events/639 p-y events/586 p-y
Tertiles of AF burden are expressed in percentage of time with AF
