Summary

This study tests whether having a trained peer mentor—someone who also has atrial fibrillation—can help reduce anxiety in vulnerable patients. About 290 adults with AF and low socioeconomic status will either receive usual care or be matched with a mentor for 16 weeks. The goal is to see if this support improves mental well-being and quality of life.
