Does Health-Related Quality of Life Predict Hospitalization or Mortality in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation?

QOL Predicts Hospitalization and Mortality in AF Background Poor health‐related quality of life (QOL) is related to morbidity and mortality in coronary heart disease and ventricular arrhythmias as well as to mortality in patients with heart failure (HF) and atrial fibrillation (AF). This study examined the contributions of QOL to the prediction of 1‐year hospitalization and mortality in patients with AF, independent of HF. Methods This study...
