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 ...

Atrial fibrillation occurs when action potentials fire very rapidly within the pulmonary veins or atrium in a chaotic manner. The result is a very fast atrial rate — about 400 to 600 beats per minute.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

The rhythm is irregularly irregular, with an average rate of 90 beats/min. There is no evidence of any organized atrial activity. Hence, the underlying rhythm is atrial fibrillation. There are two QRS ...

A new research study shows that artificial intelligence (AI) can detect the signs of an irregular heart rhythm -- atrial fibrillation (AF) -- in an electrocardiogram (EKG), even if the heart is in ...

A human heart beats about 86,000 times per day, accelerating if you drink caffeine or go for a run and slowing down if you lay down or watch TV. You probably don’t notice these fluctuations, but your ...

Last September, Apple’s Chief Operating Officer Jeff Williams revealed the Apple Watch Series 4, with a raft of new health features like Fall Detection and the ECG measurement capability. ECG, also ...
