Atrial Fibrillation – Epidemiology – Asia Pacific Data
DRG Epidemiology’s coverage of atrial fibrillation comprises epidemiological estimates of key patient populations in 45 countries worldwide. We report the prevalence of atrial fibrillation for each country, as well as annualized case counts projected to the national population.
Most patient populations in the mature pharmaceutical markets are forecast over a period of 20 years; patient populations in the other countries covered in this report are forecast over 10 years. In addition to forecasting prevalent patient populations, the number of drug-treatment opportunities at specific lines of therapy are forecast for the mature pharmaceutical markets.
DRG Epidemiology’s atrial fibrillation forecast will answers the following questions:
- How will changes in the levels of exposure to known risk or protective factors affect the number of people living with atrial fibrillation?
- Of all people with atrial fibrillation, how many in each country have been formally diagnosed?
- Of all people diagnosed with atrial fibrillation, how many in the mature pharmaceutical markets are drug-treated?
- How will demographic trends, such as population aging and improving life expectancy, affect the epidemiology of atrial fibrillation over the forecast period?
All forecast data are available on the DRG Insights Platform in tabular format, with options to download to MS Excel. All populations are accompanied by a comprehensive description of the methods and data sources used, with hyperlinks to external sources. A summary evidence table generated as part of our systematic review of the epidemiological literature is also provided for full transparency into research and methods. In addition, we provide a graphical depiction of the patient flow between or within different disease states for the mature pharmaceutical markets. These patient flows are provided at the regional level but may be requested for any specific country or forecast year.
DRG Epidemiology provides at least ten years of forecast data for the following atrial fibrillation patient populations:
- Diagnosed prevalent cases by frequency of symptoms.
- Diagnosed prevalent cases of atrial fibrillation.
- Diagnosed prevalent cases of atrial fibrillation by CHADS2 score.
- Diagnosed prevalent cases of atrial fibrillation by comorbid heart failure.
- Drug-treated prevalent cases of atrial fibrillation.
- Non-drug-treated prevalent cases of atrial fibrillation.
- Diagnosed prevalent cases by first detected event.
- Diagnosed prevalent cases with comorbid hypertension.
…… and many more (details available on request).
Note: Coverage may vary by country and region.
