TLDR
Given the limited use of DOACs, the years for which observations were made, and the differences between guidelines from this period and more current ones regarding the combined use of OACs and antiplatelet agents in AF patients following PCI, it is possible that the current relevance of the observations could be questioned.
Managing atrial fibrillation: the need for an individualized approach even in the emergency department
TLDR
A wide range of variability in achievement of Sinus rhythm in recent-onset AF implies that a series of variables may influence the chance of spontaneous conversion to sinus rhythm and may be characteristic of specific patient subgroups.
Can Shared Decision Making Improve Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation?: Implications of the Updated Guidelines.
TLDR
It is argued that SDM is most useful when it is conceptualized as an ongoing process that responds to the dynamic nature of the patients’ health conditions and to the patient’s evolving life circumstances, as shown in the Figure.
