"Info-AF" Information Preferences in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation/Flutter and the Association With Clinical Symptoms
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The aim of this project is to identify a variable that discerns patients who are interested in their disease (atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter) from patients who show no interest and furthermore test this theory in a questionnaire survey.
This should help distinguish between patients who are interested in shared decision making and patients who are not (further projects planned).
