简要总结
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. Although the condition itself is not life-threatening, the complications result in increased morbidity and mortality. AF is often asymptomatic and a considerable number of people suffering from AF are not aware of their condition. Unfortunately, a cerebral infarction is often the first clinical manifestation. The idea to screen subjects opportunistically for Asymptomatic Atrial Fibrillation (AAF) was infeasible until recently. However, with a recently-developed smartphone connected Mobile ECG Device (MED), this seems to be feasible after all.
The main objectives are:
- To examine the feasibility of screening subjects of ≥65 years old for AAF.
- To validate the smartphone connected MED as an AAF screening instrument for application in transmural care in the Netherlands.
