Newly diagnosed atrial fibrillation detected by noninvasive screening methods in clinical practice
Non-invasive screening tools are mainly used in Argentinian clinical practice to detect AF in asymptomatic patients at high risk of thromboembolic and bleeding complications. Vitamin K antagonists are less prescribed, and electrical cardioversion is preferred over antiarrhythmic drugs for initial rhythm control.
