The external assessment group (EAG) did a systematic review to identify evidence on the diagnostic accuracy and clinical effectiveness of using the lead‑I ECG devices to detect atrial fibrillation.

At times it is difficult to distinguish atrial fibrillation from atrial flutter on the ECG. This example shows coarse "fibrillatory waves" in the setting of atrial fibrillation. This are of varying ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) may be an aid to interpreting ECG results, helping healthcare staff to diagnose diseases that affect the heart. Researchers at Uppsala University and heart specialists in ...

Mayo Clinic researchers trained artificial intelligence to pick up subtle differences in electrocardiograph readings to diagnose atrial fibrillation with 90% accuracy. Artificial intelligence (AI) can ...

An artificial intelligence (AI) model has been found to identify patients with intermittent atrial fibrillation even when performed during normal rhythm using a quick and non-invasive 10 second test, ...

At times it is difficult to distinguish atrial fibrillation from atrial flutter on the ECG. This example shows coarse "fibrillatory waves" in the setting of atrial fibrillation. This are of varying ...

Why is it important to monitor your heartbeat regularly if you think you may have Atrial Fibrillation (AFib)? If a doctor or nurse suspects that you may be suffering from atrial fibrillation or AFib, ...

This week the FDA has approved a new smartphone ECG device that is capable of detecting three heart arrhythmias takes the form of the AliveCor KardiaMobile. Designed to detect Atrial Fibrillation ...

Researchers in Canada and Germany conducted the SCREEN-AF trial, a multicenter, open-label, randomized clinical trial of noninvasive, home-based AF screening interventions in community-dwelling older ...

An experimental new necklace, however, could make checking for it a quick and simple process. Developed by a team at the University of Eastern Finland, the necklace features a pendant that ...

Lead-I electrocardiogram (ECG) devices can be used in primary care to help detect atrial fibrillation in people presenting with signs or symptoms of the condition, who have an irregular pulse on ...
