Chair, Prof Isabelle C Van Gelder (University of Groningen, NL) joins us to discuss key highlights from the ESC Atrial Fibrillation 2024 guidelines.

The new guidelines centre on shared and equal care, patient empowerment, comorbidities and risk factor management, and evidence-based management and re-evaluation. The new AF-CARE pathway integrates comorbidity management, avoidance of stroke and thromboembolism, reducing symptoms with rate and rhythm control and patient evaluation with dynamic reassessment. The guidelines state that shared descision making should be a cornerstone of AF treatment, including patients and a multidisciplinary team, and further education for patients, families and healthcare professionals.

Interview Questions:
1. What are the unmet needs of AF patients in 2024?
2. What is new in the guidelines?
3. Is there any area that needs more attention?
4. What are some of the challenges and opportunities with the implementation of these recommendations?

Recorded on-site at ESC Congress 2024, London.
