Perspectives in Atrial Fibrillation (AF)
AF affects 2.6 million in the U.S.
Five-fold increased
risk for ischemic
stroke
Mortality rates have increased
in past two
decades
12 million AF cases projected by 2050

Overview: The NBCA AF Blood Clot/Stoke Awareness Survey
Responds to growing recognition of AF public health burdens
Benchmarks awareness, prophylaxis experiences
Demonstrates gaps in information and evidence-based prophylaxis

Conclusions and Future Directions
Fill gaps related to blood clot/stroke risk awareness
Optimize education programs/prophylaxis among patients
Research new therapies to address treatment barriers
Opportunities exist for improved patient education
• General awareness is high• Gaps do remain
• Additional information limited• Information referrals limited
• Warfarin Tx barriers identified• Patients report adherence
• Aspirin use is high• Prophylaxis varies
