WORCESTER, Mass. – An algorithm developed by Ki H. Chon, PhD, head of the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), in partnership with Snehraj Merchant of The ...

New algorithm stops the catheter at the right target to treat atrial fibrillation (AFib), reports a new study. The findings of the study are published in the journal Cardiovascular Engineering and ...

A new algorithm makes it possible for a new heart monitoring system to detect incidents of atrial fibrillation, the most common form of cardiac arrhythmia, far more accurately than previous methods.

Patients with atrial fibrillation or AFib experience chaotic electrical signals in the upper chamber of their heart (atria), which cause an irregular or quivering heartbeat (arrhythmia) that can lead ...

AliveCor has received an additional FDA 510(k) clearance, this time for an algorithm that allows its smartphone ECG to detect atrial fibrillation -- an abnormal heart rhythm that isn't always ...

Two weeks back, Google announced that it was seeking U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval for a new atrial fibrillation-detecting technology it planned to roll out to Fibit wearables. Today, the ...

Some 2,000 people have taken part in a ground-breaking trial to test an algorithm that can help doctors identify people at risk of developing atrial fibrillation (AF). The trial is evaluating an ...

Patients with atrial fibrillation or AFib experience chaotic electrical signals in the upper chamber of their heart (atria), which cause an irregular or quivering heartbeat (arrhythmia) that can lead ...

PHILADELPHIA — Accelerometer-based atrial sensing with a novel, enhanced, automated algorithm in patients with atrioventricular block and a single-chamber leadless pacemaker in the right ventricle ...

A recent study found that time-restricted eating was associated with a reduced risk for CVD among older women with overweight who received cardiotoxic breast cancer treatment. The time-restricted ...
