Intracardiac Hemostasis and Fibrinolysis Parameters in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation.

CONCLUSIONS: None of the investigated hemostasis or fibrinolysis parameters showed significant intracardiac alterations in AF patients as compared to non-AF controls. AF patients have elevated FVIII and VWF levels, most likely due to endothelial damage, presenting at both intracardiac and systemic level. PMID: 28713823 [PubMed - in process]
