“Atrial Fibrillation is the most common heart rhythm problem in the world and yet is unknown by the general public until they develop AF. This book provides an insight into the condition and helpful ways to self-manage it with the backup of digital technology. AF and the symptoms can usually be well managed with the correct information to minimise symptoms and potential harm. We feel this book provides that and signposts where extra validated help can be found as required.”
