New Module: Atrial fibrillation (AF)

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia and is associated with a fivefold increase in the risk of stroke, and twice the risk of death, predominantly linked to the presence and severity of underlying cardiovascular disease. It can also significantly impact a person’s quality of life (e.g. their exercise tolerance and cognitive function).

The case study component of this distance learning module is now closed. If you completed the case, we will email shortly to let you know that the response and questionnaire are available.

If you have missed this case study but would like to take part in future modules, please register using the button above and we will email you when the next case opens.
