Shownotes    Diagnosis of atrial fibrillation. What do we need to know? Symptoms may be totally absent, even in recent onset AF, or really atypical like fatigue. It also has been demonstrated by transtelephonic ECG studies, that asymptomatic AF occurs far more frequently than symptomatic episodes even after drug withdrawal. Therefore, diagnosing AF is not an easy task and can be challenging at times. This podcast shines light on the evolving methods to diagnose atrial fibrillation.
