New electrocardiographic score for the prediction of atrial fibrillation: The MVP ECG risk score (morphology‐voltage‐P‐wave duration)

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia and has significant morbidity. A score composed of easily measured electrocardiographic variables to identify patients at risk of AF would be of great value in order to stratify patients for increased monitoring and surveillance. The purpose of this study was to develop an electrocardiographic risk score for new‐onset AF. Methods A total of 676 patients without previous AF...
