Atrial Fibrillation and Stroke: Continuum of Care

Carrie Lewis
Stroke Survivors Tattler

Have you ever felt your heart flutter, race or skip a beat? Most of us have at some point. But if this happens more frequently, you may have atrial fibrillation (Afib)—and an increased risk for stroke.

Join WomenHeart: The National Coalition for Women with Heart Disease and National Stroke Association for a three-part webinar series to learn the signs and symptoms of Afib, how to manage stroke risk, what to do if you have a stroke, who is on your healthcare team and the promise of effective rehab.

• Sept. 11 / Noon EDT / Afib and Stroke Risk: What You Need to Know
• Sept. 18 / Noon EDT / Taking Care of Afib
• Sept. 25 / Noon EDT / Post-stroke Recovery

More than 2.5 million people in the U.S. live with Afib. Even though it is more common in men, women with Afib are more likely to have a stroke. Untreated, Afib can also lead to heart failure and chronic fatigue. Are you at risk?
