Management of device-detected subclinical atrial fibrillation: a European Heart Rhythm Association survey
AF screening is not routinely performed, either in primary or secondary prevention of stroke. Device-detected AF is not uncommon and generally managed based on thromboembolic risk and duration of episodes; the cut-offs of AF duration, global burden, and number of episodes are yet to be determined in terms of role and clinical value. Clinicians' approaches to subclinical AF remain heterogeneous.
