Incidence of 'SUSPECTED' and 'IDENTIFIED' AF increased with age. Of those with identified AF, 80% of high-risk patients were anticoagulated.
KEY MESSAGES
Smart Device based PPG Technology
could be a feasible approach for
AF screening.
This would help efforts at screening and detection of AF, as well as early interventions to reduce stroke and other AFrelated complications.
