.brandingscience Boehringer Ingelheim I don't know. It's a very common, preventable cause of stroke. #Stroke is a serious condition. #ChatAFib

.@doctorcasado Richard Schilling often no, many AF pts not on anticoagulants for no good reason. Info & education for pts & HCPs key #ChatAFib

1 approach won't work 4 all. Every #AFib patient should have face-to-face education with a trained HCP at time of diagnosis #ChatAFib

.@doctorcasado #AFib patients should have at least one annual face to face review #ChatAFib

.Vivienne Parry Lawrence Sherman For greatest effect diagnosis & treatment needs to focused in primary care, ideally not on a stroke unit #ChatAFib

Take home message from me: prevention is better than a cure when it comes to cardioembolic stroke #ChatAFib
