结局指标
主要结局
[Time Frame: From baseline to 12 weeks] Atrial Fibrillation Effect on Quality-of-Life (AFEQT)
时间窗: Baseline
AFEQT is an atrial fibrillation-specific measure that taps into the QoL-domains: symptoms, daily activities, treatment concern, and treatment satisfaction. The scale has 20 items, with the total score ranging from 0 (severe symptoms and disability) to 100 (no symptoms and disability), with responses provided on a seven-point rating scale from "no limitations/symptoms" to "severe limitations/symptoms".
