Hypertension and Atrial Fibrillation: a risky couple even more when the family expands
Speakers: Prof. Dr. J.J. Bax, Prof. Dr. N.M.S. de Groot, Prof. Dr. A. Maas and others
March 15th, 2023

Hypertension and atrial fibrillation, the connection could be closer than you think
In fact, in epidemiological studies, the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) increased by 50% in patients with hypertension (HT).
OMRON Healthcare is launching a series of webinars to explore the connection between hypertension (HT), atrial fibrillation (AF), and other chronic diseases.
We will be investigating the link between HT, AF, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), diabetes, chronic kidney disease (CKD), heart failure (HF) and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) with expert guest speakers from Europe.
You are invited to interact with questions and observations through academy@omron.com or join the live Meet-the-Expert on 18 October 2023 - 17.00 CEST.
For viewing the other episodes of the series, please go to OMRON Academy
