AF CoE Playbook – Figure 7.4 Standard rate control strategy algorithm

This figure/table is drawn from the Atrial Fibrillation Center of Excellence (AF CoE) Playbook, a comprehensive resource developed to guide healthcare teams in implementing best practices for atrial fibrillation (AF) care. Each visual highlights key concepts, frameworks, or strategies aimed at improving the diagnosis, management, and outcomes for patients with AF. Together, these visuals are intended to support education, enhance clinical workflows, and promote standardized, high-quality AF care across diverse healthcare settings.

AF = atrial fibrillation; AFCOE = Atrial Fibrillation Center of Excellence; AFEQT = Atrial Fibrillation Effect on Quality-of-Life questionnaire; BP = blood pressure;
bpm = beats per minute; DDI = drug–drug interaction; DHP CCB = dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker; EF = ejection fraction; ER = extended release; HR =
heart rate; LV = left ventricular; q2weeks = once every 2 weeks; q3-6months = once every 3–6 months; SBP = systolic blood pressure; SR = sustained release; XL
= extra long.
