Estimates of current and future incidence and prevalence of atrial fibrillation in the U.S. adult population. (2013, background): “However, when AF prevalence was estimated in a direct, cross-sectional manner from this administrative claims data, we retrieved estimates that were in line with other crosssectional point estimates from both an earlier study(1) and a more recent health claims database for 2005.(7) Our crosssectiona”
Atrial fibrillation: profile and burden of an evolving epidemic in the 21st century. (2013, background): “Projected number of adults with AF in the US by 2050 [9,36,96].”
Automated Atrial Fibrillation Detection using a Hybrid CNN-LSTM Network on Imbalanced ECG Datasets (2021, background): “In fact, it is estimated that due to overaging the total number of AFib patients will double by the year 2050 [6].”
Estimation of Total Incremental Health Care Costs in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation in the United States (2011, methodology): “Patients considered to have transient AF, as signified by (1) an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for hyperthyroidism or an outpatient prescription claim for methimazole or propylthiouracil in the 12-month period before the index diagnosis, or (2) a single AF diagnosis after recent (within 30 days) cardiac s”
