Elite retired rowers face a nearly threefold increased risk of atrial fibrillation compared to the general population, driven ...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) often comanifest. 1 AF and HF independently increase the risk of hospitalization, morbidity, mortality, and symptoms that reduce quality of life (QOL) ...

In this paper we present the design of a low-power on-chip sensor signal processing system which analyzes electrocardiogram (ECG) data for signs of atrial fibrillation. By optimizing an artificial ...

Applying artificial intelligence to EKG readings allows doctors to detect the signs of atrial fibrillation, even when larger symptoms aren’t occurring while the EKG is recorded. RELATED: The Mayo ...

With the popularity of wireless techniques and portable devices, continuous and real-time monitoring patient’s health status by collecting physiological signals is becoming more popular. Data mining ...

Background Emerging evidence suggests associations between air pollution, multimorbidity, and atrial fibrillation (AF), but their interplay remains unclear. We evaluated these relationships in a ...

Justin M. Schaffer, M.D., from Baylor Scott & White – The Heart Hospital in Plano, Texas, and colleagues identified 87,699 Medicare beneficiaries with preexisting atrial fibrillation undergoing CABG, ...

Heart failure (HF) and atrial fibrillation (AF) frequently coexist and may be associated with worse HF outcomes, but there is limited contemporary evidence describing their combined prevalence. We ...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) frequently complicates the management of chronic kidney disease, especially in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). AF occurs in approximately one in five of the 650 ...
