Po-04-214 video-based facial detection of atrial fibrillation across human complexions

It has been posited that the Black vs. White disparity in stroke risk may be partly attributable to the relative underdetection of AF in Black compared with White patients. We propose a novel monitoring solution that could minimize the impact of the socio-economic disparities in access to remote monitoring solutions. We developed a video-based monitoring technology to detect AF without the need for a patient to adopt a dedicated wearable device. It is a low-cost software-only solution running on smartphones.
