Risk Prediction of Atrial Fibrillation Based on Electrocardiographic Interatrial Block

Risk Prediction of Atrial Fibrillation Based on Electrocardiographic Interatrial Block

BackgroundThe electrocardiographic interatrial block (IAB) has been associated with atrial fibrillation (AF). We aimed to test whether IAB can improve risk prediction of AF for the individual person. Methods and ResultsDigital ECGs of 152 759 primary care patients aged 50 to 90 years were collected...
