In her first regular Patient Perspective column, which appears in the August issue of EP Lab Digest, StopAfib.org founder Mellanie True Hills explores a concern in the atrial fibrillation patient community that staying in afib long term could be a "death sentence."
In addition, she talks about the upcoming National Atrial Fibrillation Awareness Month, which takes place in September.
