Tackling Patient-Reported Outcomes in Atrial Fibrillation and Heart Failure: Identifying Disease-Specific Symptoms?

Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) both significantly affect morbidity and mortality and also account for high symptom burden and impaired health-related quality of life (hrQoL). Several well-designed and broadly implemented patient-reported outcome instruments are available for both AF and HF and can easily measure hrQoL in each disease process. A better understanding of the diverse phenotypes of AF and HF, as well as the heterogeneous treatment effects of disease-specific interventions, is necessary to further disentangle the complex relationship between symptoms of AF and HF.
