Development and validation of a new disease-specific quality-of-life measure for atrial fibrillation derived from patient perspectives: The Atrial Fibrillation Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (AF-PROMs) Questionnaire
AF-PROMs is a validated, patient-centered instrument, developed with the largest participant group to date, offering a comprehensive assessment of HRQoL in patients with AF. Its unique strengths include extensive patient involvement, high reliability, and sensitivity to clinical interventions, making it a valuable tool for both clinical practice and research in enhancing the measurement of HRQoL in AF.
