The 1-channel ECG of the Apple Watch can detect atrial fibrillation that wasn't previously known. But it is also useful after ...

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.

A smartphone-based electrocardiogram (ECG) screening accurately detected previously unknown atrial fibrillation in American Indians, and more than half who were diagnosed with the irregular heart ...

Atrial fibrillation is a well-known risk factor for stroke that often remains undetected; yet, the benefit of screening of asymptomatic individuals remains unclear. A recent randomized trial ...

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 ...
