The objective of this research is to establish a contemporary and simple to construct AF management registry that expands progressively over the continuum of care for each individual patient. The registry will be used to determine the course and progression of AF management in preventing thrombo-embolic events using rhythm and rate control interventions.
Primary endpoints:
1. Atrial fibrillation natural history
2. Thrombo-embolic event
3. Death
Secondary endpoints:
1. Bleeding
2. Pro-arrhythmia
3. Patient adherence
4. Treatment complication
