Atrial Fibrillation Study in Older Adults in Rural China
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study follows older adults in rural China who have atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm) to better understand the condition and screen for heart failure. Researchers want to learn more about how these conditions affect people in rural communities.
