Brief Summary:
Geriatric patients are at high risk of cardiovascular complications, and for the development of atrial fibrillation. Often atrial fibrillation exists in these patients without specific symptoms, and could therefore remain unknown. Furthermore, concerns exist about the bleeding profile of anticoagulation in the very elderly or frail patients.
This study applies opportunistic screening for atrial fibrillation as advised in the latest ESC Guideline on the diagnosis and management of atrial fibrillation. Furthermore, multiple bleeding risk scores will be applies, to better assess the bleeding risk in very elderly or frail patients.
