Popis:	Atrial fibrillation (AF) is responsible for most hospitalizations for arrhythmia and is an independent risk factor for stroke. The cardioembolic stroke is frequently related to the presence of AF in any form (paroxysmal, persistent, permanent) and is characterized by high mortality and high residual disability. The clinical history of patients implanted with PM / ICD is often characterized by new occurrence or the recurrence of AF. We evaluated the role of remote monitoring of implanted devices for accurate detection of symptomatic or silent AF especially when there is an atrial electrode.
