Atrial fibrillation(short for atrial fibrillation) is the most common arrhythmia. There are as many as 10 million patients with atrial fibrillation in China, and with the increase of age, the prevalence of atrial fibrillation increases sharply10%.
Methods of atrial fibrillation screening include blood pressure measurement, pulse palpation, electrocardiogram screening, long-range holter screening, implantable holter screening and smartphones.
Through pulse palpation, automatic blood pressure measurement, etc., although such methods are simple and easy to implement, the probability of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis is high.
Most electrocardiograms need to be performed in medical institutions, and can only record the heart rate for about 10 seconds. For patients with few and irregular atrial fibrillation attacks, the inspection rate is low.
The implantable holter is more expensive and requires implanted equipment, only to screen for atrial fibrillation, and most patients are currently unwilling to accept it.
With the current popularity of smartphones, almost everyone has one. Single-lead ECG recordings through smartphones can track heart rhythms for a longer period of time, which is expected to further improve the detection rate of atrial fibrillation.
For patients with recessive screening by ordinary ECG, the application of long-range holter and implantable holter should be increased to make up for the short recording time of ordinary ECG and reduce the missed diagnosis rate of asymptomatic atrial fibrillation.
Plus1Health has an ECG monitoring applet and a supporting ECG monitoring solution, and can also realize the remote ECG monitoring function, which can perform ECG monitoring at home and issue real-time ECG reports.
