As early detection of atrial fibrillation is crucial for preventing the onset of stroke and heart failure, researchers at OMRON Healthcare have been developing devices with atrial fibrillation ...

The atrial fibrillation (AFib) detection feature on Apple Watch devices has become the first digital health technology to be qualified under a programme recently introduced by the FDA designed to ...

Newer Galaxy Watch and Apple Watch devices now offer a “sleep apnea” feature that enables users to detect signs of moderate ...

But for people with atrial fibrillation, also known as Afib, using a wearable device to monitor the heart rate and to alert wearers of an irregular heartbeat might not be as helpful as wearers think.

The study, published in the journal Heart Rhythm O2 and carried out at three clinical centres in the UK, looked at the sensitivity and specificity of the two devices' automatic AFib detection ...

Most commercially available devices, such as the Apple Watch, Samsung Galaxy Watch, and Withings Move ECG, rely on ...

Detecting atrial fibrillation (AF) from brain scans using AI could support future stroke care, according to a recent study published in the Karger journal Cerebrovascular Diseases.

Researchers assessed the sensitivity and specificity of each device's automatic AFib detection algorithms using single-lead electrocardiograms (SL-ECG) data, which was subsequently interpreted by ...
