Affecting 60 million people worldwide 1 , the prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AFib) is expected to increase by 60% by 2050 due to an aging population and rising cardiometabolic risk factors 2. In addition, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that more than 12 million Americans will have AFib by 2030 3.

In general, risk factors for stroke and some forms of heart disease are similar. Stroke is often due to sudden loss of blood supply to a region of the brain which usually results in paralysis of a part of the body. Stroke could also be due to bleeding into a part of the brain. Stroke can occur after a heart attack as well.

As age advances and depending on risk factors like heredity, smoking, high blood pressure and diabetes, fat build up occurs in these blood vessels. Just as we build bypass roads when a city road is too congested, blood vessels of the heart can by bypassed when they have too many total or partial blocks.
