EP News – QI and Outcomes – NOV 2020 AFib QI (Barbhaiy)

Journal Articles: In this issue of Heart Rhythm Journal, we summarize key publications of relevance to the electrophysiology community regarding the use of system-based processes to improve heart rhythm care and outcomes for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). The featured research highlights challenges in improving the rate of guideline-directed anticoagulation to prevent stroke for high-risk patients with AF, including the benefits and limitations of the use of shared decision-making tools. This summary also reports on efforts to identify additional quality indicators to measure AF care and outcomes.
