Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Disclosed is a method for diagnosing paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in a subject, involving: determining the amount of FABP-3 (Fatty acid binding protein 3) in a sample from a subject suspected to suffer from paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, and comparing the determined amount to a reference amount. The method may further involve the determination of a BNP-type peptide. Also disclosed is a device adapted to carry out the method.
