Can 24 h of ambulatory ECG be used to triage patients to extended monitoring?
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Access to long-term ambulatory recording to detect atrial fibrillation (AF) is limited for economical and practical reasons. We aimed to determine whether 24 h ECG (24hECG) data can predict AF detection on extended cardiac monitoring.
METHODS: We included all US patients from 2020, aged 17-100 years, who were monitored for 2-30 days using the PocketECG device (MEDICALgorithmics), without AF ≥30 s on the first day (n = 18,220, mean …
