Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common form of arrhythmia and

one of the leading causes of thromboembolic stroke. Because its

prevalence increases with age, it is estimated that more than 6

million individuals will be affected with AF by 2050. It is critical

that cardiologists and other clinicians are able to accurately

assess and manage stroke risk, identify and employ effective

treatment strategies,and improve long-term outcomes

in their patients.

The Advanced Curriculum Program: Stroke Prevention in Atrial

Fibrillation provides state-of-the-science information

and practical guidance to improve the evaluation of stroke risk

and appropriate use of antithrombotic therapies for stroke prevention

in patients with AF. This CME/CE program, co-sponsored by USF

Health and Projects In Knowledge, offers 10 engaging activities,

including six article reviews, three case-based

e-newsletters with audio, and an on-demand webcast.
