Brief Summary

The aim of this project is to recognize the actual frequency of atrial fibrillation in the Polish population as well as to determine the independent risk factors for the occurrence of its clinically symptomatic and asymptomatic forms

Study Population

The survey was designed as a country representative study and was carried out on a sample of Polish residents aged ≥65 years, divided into six age groups of equal size and gender proportion (65-69, 70-74, 75-79, 80-84, 85-89 and 90+ years). The planned size of the research sample was 3,000 subjects (250 subjects for each gender and age group). Research participants were randomly recruited in clusters, in a stratified, proportional draw performed in three stages. The reason for overrepresentation of the oldest age groups was to allow separate analysis of data for older people.

You may qualify if:

  • age ≥ 65 years

You may not qualify if:

  • age \< 65 years
