Risk-stratification and outcomes of Congolese patients with atrial fibrillation: a descriptive cohort study

Introduction: atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common form of tachycardia. In low-income countries, the proportion of valvular AF concomitantly with rheumatic heart diseases. On the other hand, cardiovascular risk factors are increasing together with non-valvular AF. AF is responsible for 20% of...
