Assessment of Family Physicians’ Knowledge and Attitudes Toward Atrial Fibrillation and Oral Anticoagulants in Türkiye: What Do the Survey Results Reveal?

FPs can be encouraged and supported to play an active role in AF management, which may enhance patient outcomes, reduce costs for the healthcare system, and share the workload of cardiologists.
