Eligibility Criteria
The MANAGE-AF study will enroll 600 consecutive patients from the emergency cardiology departments and outpatient clinics in about 35 Greek hospitals. Their selection will be made in an effort to recruit a representative sample of patients from different geographic areas and stratums of the country.

- Patients aged ≥ 18 years with any type of AF(first diagnosed, paroxysmal, persistent, long-standing persistent and permanent) according to the classification described in the recent ESC guidelines.
- All patients should give written informed consent to participate in the study.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients anticipated life expectancy less than 1 year due to a severe concomitant disease.
- Participation in an another clinical trial, with the exception of epidemiology trials (observational) that do not influence AF management.
- Patients with mental disability unable to comply with follow - up visits and these who are unable to provide, in written, their informed consent or patients with anticipated inability to adhere to scheduled follow up visits.
