Thanks for posting that. Really explains afib and why we sometimes need to use blood thinners.

Excellent thank you 😊

Thank you for sharing this - it's a very clear presentation, really helpful. I also really like what a balanced viewpoint he puts forward and how he stresses that a 'discussion needs to be had between the clinician and patient about the risks of anticoagulation vs the benefits'. What a wonderful thing that would be.
