Brief Summary:
A prospective trial with hospitals/health centres across 6 different European countries, being randomised to either a structured education programme as the intervention or no additional education as the control. To determine whether a comprehensive educational programme for healthcare professionals will increase the rate of appropriate stroke prevention and rhythm control therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and adherence to Guidelines.
Detailed Description:
Prospective, parallel group, two-arm, unblinded, international, cluster-randomized controlled trial.
Intervention arm: A 16-week blended learning programme targeting stroke prevention and rhythm control therapy at the healthcare professional level, with controlled assessments, a commitment to change plan, and reinforcement actions Control arm: No added education of healthcare professionals 70 centres with a cluster size of 25 patients; total estimated number of patients 1750.
8-12 weeks patient recruitment period at each centre; 16 weeks educational intervention period; primary \& secondary outcomes at 6-9 months post-randomisation; remote follow-up for clinical events (no new patient contact) at 18 months from randomisation.
