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 ...

5.1 The committee discussed the effects of atrial fibrillation. The clinical experts commented that earlier diagnosis of atrial fibrillation may reduce a person's risk of stroke because ...

The heart-monitoring electrocardiogram (EKG) app on Fitbit’s new Sense smartwatch has been cleared by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The feature can track heart rhythms and look for signs ...

This ECG shows a normal QRS complex with runs of a narrow complex tachycardia. There appear to be P waves present before the QRS complexes, however not of normal sinus morphology suggesting an ectopic ...

3.1 The lead-I electrocardiogram (ECG) devices were assessed when they were used in addition to 12‑lead ECGs. Clinical experts advised that a 12‑lead ECG would still be used after lead-I ECGs to ...

A new artificial intelligence (AI) model designed by Scripps Research scientists could help clinicians better screen patients for atrial fibrillation (or AFib) - an irregular, fast heartbeat that is ...

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 ...

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 ...

Artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled electrocardiograph (ECG) acquired during normal sinus rhythm can recognize people with atrial fibrillation (irregular heart rhythm), finds a new study. Artificial ...

Some doctors are testing a new device that could make life a bit easier for people with a common heart problem. This has the potential to help a lot of people. Testing is underway to see if a new ...
