Prevalence and characteristics of OSAFED syndrome in atrial fibrillation primary care patients.

CONCLUSIONS: Frequently coexisting OSAFED syndrome components in all AF patients from the primary care setting should encourage a more active search for OSA and ED in patients with any documented form of AF. Most of the studied patients did not have the diagnosis of OSA nor ED done prior to participation in the study. PMID: 28181212 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]
