Abstract
Clinical research into the management of atrial fibrillation—the most common serious arrhythmia—has mostly focused on arrhythmia prevention and the reduction of vascular events and death. In 2010, important advances have been made in stroke prevention with new anticoagulants and in atrial fibrillation rhythm management.
