New from @SAFER_Study
People who opted out of #AF #screening were making reasoned decisions based on personal circs & on whether the screening seemed necessary, legitimate & useful.

Current research being our @SAFER_Study - watch this space
UK NSC doesn't recommend national screening programme for Atrial Fibrilation (AF):
- uncertainty about significance of different types of AF
- effectiveness of treatment for screen detected AF unknown
- current research underway to answer these Q's

The @SAFER_Study, a large new programme of research investigating screening to detect atrial fibrillation, the heart condition responsible for one in ten stroke, is starting here in East Anglia.

Thank you @PCU_Cambridge for sharing my blog on adversity in running @SAFER_Study . The wave of the pandemic was sink or swim for us, as the closing wall of sound for Beethoven.

Why ‘case finding’ is bad science - @mgtmccartney @felly500, Sam Finnikin, Harriet Hunt, Mike McHugh, @muirgray - we need evidence before implementation, including for atrial fibrillation @SAFER_Study journals.sagepub.com/doi/ful…
We are fortunate to be working with Amrit and his amazing team @wansfordsurgery on the @SAFER_Study —congratulations on your well-deserved award

We are recruiting! Come and join the SAFER team and help deliver a (very) large AF screening trial jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/22791/
We are well underway with phase 2 of our feasibility study. Huge thanks to our practices (Shelford, Buckden, Norwich, Hertford and Hoddesdon) for inviting 4,000 patients. Participants are already undergoing #AF screening and recording lots of ECGs - thank you everyone
Excited and privileged to be at #ESOC2019 with the @SAFER_Study. Detecting #AF is a bit of a hot topic here today. @NIHRresearch
