Dr. Amraoui took part in the event and contributed to discussions on the diagnostic and therapeutic management of atrial fibrillation (AF). She also presented the patient care pathway for those treated for AF at the American Hospital of Paris. 🩺

This meeting provided an opportunity for rich and friendly discussions around a major public health issue.

• High blood pressure 💉

• Sleep apnea 😴
