To bridge the current gap between the known mechanisms of atrial fibrillation (AF) and the clinical management of patients with this arrhythmia, Fabritz and colleagues propose a roadmap to develop a set of clinical markers that reflect the major causes of AF in patients. A new, mechanism-based classification of AF can provide the basis for personalized prevention and management.
