Leading up to this year's ESC Congress in Amsterdam, the AF Screen International Collaboration group provided us with the opportunity to present our ongoing research efforts related to the screening for atrial fibrillation in primary care at today's AFFECT-EU meeting. We illustrated the work that has been done in this field in the Netherlands, as well as the rationale of the ongoing PATCH-AF trial. Moreover, we illustrated the need for more study on the impact of incidental ECG findings (other than AF), and a call to action to harmonize the reporting (and work-up) of these findings in screening populations.
Special thanks to the organizing committee, the feedback from participants, and congrats to Tessa Brik and Jelle Himmelreich for this achievement.
