Assessment of the quality of life in patients with atrial fibrillation – critical view on the current methods and insights for the future

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Atrial fibrillation (AF) represents the most common supraventricular arrhythmia of clinical significance associated with increased mortality and morbidity, especially stroke and heart failure. While AF is rarely life- threatening arrhythmia, the symptoms may vary from totally asymptomatic in up to a one third of affected population to severe symptoms deteriorating significantly patients’ quality of life (QoL). There is currently no globally adopted guidelines on how to assess QoL in patients with AF and AF-associated QoL may be viewed from many perspectives, representing an extensive multidimensional construct. Numerous QoL instruments have been used in AF studies to date, again indicating the lack of general consensus. QoL measurement tools may be divided into two categories: generic instruments and AF-specific instruments or symptom scales. This minireview focuses on recently used questionnaires and proposing a novel, holistic method of QoL assessment in patients with AF.
