- Improvements in patient-reported health status are associated with better long-term clinical outcomes in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients.
- Patients with a 5-point or greater increase in their AF PROM score after one year had a lower risk of all-cause death, heart failure hospitalization, and stroke over a 4-year follow-up.
- The study highlights the prognostic value of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and supports regular monitoring of health status in AF management.
