The Role of Wearable Technology in Heart Health Wearable tech is designed to monitor physiological data and provide actionable insights to users. Detection of Irregular Heart Rhythms Devices such as the Apple Watch or Fitbit Sense can detect irregular heart rhythms, including atrial fibrillation (AFib).

Then, the current flows to an area known as the bundle of His, which divides into two branches (LBB and RBB) and is the only physiological pathway connecting the atria with the ventricles. AFIB/AFL – atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter episodes. An abnormal electrocardiogram can mean many things.

She also has a hx of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and is on oral anticoagulant treatment. The patient’s own underlying atrial rhythm is revealed at a heart rate in the mid 50s. AV synchrony and physiologic ventricular depolarization the hemodynamics improved. The last echocardiography 12 months ago showed HFmrEF.

Here is the previous ECG from 2 months prior for pre-op for cataract surgery This appears to be atrial fibrillation with RBBB and LAFB. This was interpreted as "Atrial Fibrillation". This was interpreted as "Atrial Fibrillation". They compared to a previous ECG and thought they were identical.

Chart review confirmed that he had been started on flecainide for atrial fibrillation. This new information makes the diagnosis of atrial flutter far more likely: first, atrial fibrillation and flutter are closely associated and, second, this makes a flutter rate of 200 bpm (with 1:1 conduction) quite likely.

The rhythm is atrial fibrillation. I sent it to 2 of my ECG nerd colleagues with no clinical information whatsoever, who instantly said: "Looks like afib with subendocardial ischemia and right heart strain pattern." "I The rhythm is rapid AFib. The QRS complex is within normal limits.

Rate correction should not be used when RR interval has large variability, as in atrial fibrillation. Atrial Fibrillation: These authors compared Bazett, Fridericia, and Framingham QT measurements on 54 patients with atrial fibrillation. Dangerously prolonged QT is 480, especially greater than 500 ms.
