This tool has been developed by the Centre for Primary Care
& Public Health at Queen Mary, London University to help GPs to easily and rapidly identify
high risk patients with atrial fibrillation who may benefit from
anticoagulation. Recent
research shows that it is effective at increasing anticoagulation rates in
primary care and, if implemented nationally, it could prevent 1600 strokes per
year.
What does it do?
It is a software tool which rapidly identifies high risk
patients with AF who are not taking anticoagulants. It enables you to quickly draw up a
priority patient list to contact for review. It also automatically calculates a
CHADS2 score for QOF purposes and includes a casefinder tool.
How do I get hold of the APL tool?
The research team have made it freely available to NHS GPs. Please contact the Queen Mary Clinical Effectiveness Group:

The aim of the new Atrial Fibrillation Treatment is to adjust the activity of the sympathetic nervous system. Once the sympathetic nervous system works in a more balanced way with the parasympathetic side, AF is reduced.
