Resumen: Clinical Practice Guidelines recommend using peripheral blood pulse measuring as a screening test
for Atrial Fibrillation. However, there is no adequate evidence supporting the efficacy of such procedure in primary
care clinical practice. This paper describes a study protocol designed to verify whether early opportunistic screening
for Atrial Fibrillation by measuring blood pulse is more effective than regular practice in subjects aged 65 years
attending primary care centers.
