Abstracts

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent type of supraventricular arrhythmia. AF occurs when abnormal electric signals are sent to the atria, which cause them to contract quickly and irregularly. For many patients, the condition is largely asymptomatic, however when symptoms become bothersome and frequent, intervention is required to restore normal rhythm.

This report provides the current prevalent population for AF across 18 Major Markets (USA, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, UK, Brazil, Japan, India, Mexico, Turkey, Canada, Australia, Netherlands, Argentina, Russia, China and South Korea) split by gender and 5-year age cohort. Along with the current prevalence, the report provides an overview of the classification and patient treatment options for AF. The report also contains a disease overview of the risk factors, disease diagnosis and prognosis along with specific variations by geography and ethnicity.

Providing a value-added level of insight from the analysis team at Black Swan, several of the main symptoms and co-morbidities of AF have been quantified and presented alongside the overall prevalence figures. These sub-populations within the main disease are also included at a country level across the 10-year forecast snapshot.

Main symptoms and co-morbidities for AF include:

• Hypertension
• CHF/ CAD and other structural cardiac diseases
• Diabetes
• Mitral Stenosis/other valvular disorders
• COPD
• Stroke
• Rheumatic Heart Disease

This report is built using data and information sourced from the proprietary Epiomic patient segmentation database. To generate accurate patient population estimates, the Epiomic database utilises a combination of several world class sources that deliver the most up to date information form patient registries, clinical trials and epidemiology studies. All of the sources used to generate the data and analysis have been identified in the report.

Reason to buy

• Able to quantify patient populations in global AF’s market to target the development of future products, pricing strategies and launch plans.
• Gain further insight into the prevalence of the subdivided types of AF and identify patient segments with high potential.
• Delivery of more accurate information for clinical trials in study sizing and realistic patient recruitment for various countries.
• Provide a level of understanding on the impact from specific co-morbid conditions on AF’s prevalent population.
• Identify sub-populations within AF which require treatment.
• Gain an understanding of the specific markets that have the largest number of AF patients
