A.fib patients often have Atrial flutter and/or Atrial tachycardia as well. This can be confusing!
Use this direct link for a simple explanation for patients, to assist with treatment discussions:

Patients may ask about different types of ablation technology for their a.fib. Send them this link for a simple explanation, which still leaves their doc in charge of that decision πŸ‘

Hey Bluesky friends, if you or someone close to you has been diagnosed with Atrial Fibrillation and your PCP/cardiologist either didn't explain everything clearly enough, or if you still have questions, check out this excellent video from @narrowqrs.bsky.social ‡️

An excellent video!
So here's a crazy idea. After the initial diagnosis (e.g., immediately following that first trip to the ED or PCP), the "you've got new test results" MyChart email includes a link to the video. The subsequent follow-up precheck-in emails then contain a "viewed it" check box.

I would love that!
I know a barrier is the length, but i really didn't want to leave out anything to shorten it πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
Maybe we should call it a "podcast" πŸ˜‚
Thank you so much for watching it - i always nervously await feedback after creating a new video, and i really appreciate the kind words! πŸ™

For EP providers: if you watch the video, think about how different a new patient visit might be if the AFib patient had watched this first? πŸ€”

🚨🚨🚨 New Patient Education Video!!
I am thankful for the opportunity to help patients and their family/friends understand more about their heart rhythm problems. With knowledge, things are less scary and we can make treatment decisions together.

You should try being in medicine. Reimbursement steadily declines, costs continually rise. No wonder so many hospitals go bust. And the government throwing millions off their coverage will supercharge this fiasco.

There's a minimalist version remaining, with just a few people tweeting back and forth. Really sad it's gone.
