Screening for Atrial Fibrillation Among Older Patients in Primary Care Clinics — VITAL-AF  

Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trial

Official title:
Screening for Atrial Fibrillation in an Ambulatory Clinic Population: The VITAL-AF Study

Clinical Trial Summary

The overall goal of this study is to assess the effectiveness of screening for undiagnosed atrial fibrillation (AF) using simple, efficient, and portable electronic health and mobile technologies in a healthcare system. The investigators propose to perform population-based screening for undiagnosed AF as part of usual care in patients ≥ 65 years when their vital signs are checked (spot-check) at scheduled outpatient visits in adult Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) primary care clinics. Patients will receive routine care by their primary care provider (PCP) based upon the results of the screening during the visit. The investigators hypothesize that rates of AF detection among individuals ≥ 65 years in the MGH primary care network will be greater among patients in clinics assigned to the spot-check arm compared to patients in clinics assigned to the usual care arm of the study.
