A novel single-lead handheld atrial fibrillation detection system

This study proposed a novel AF detection system with a user-friendly interaction and a lightweight and accurate AF detection algorithm. Approach . The system consisted of a single-lead handheld electrocardiogram device with a novel appearance like a gaming handle and a smartphone terminal embedded with AF detection. After feature optimization, the rule-based multi-feature AF detection algorithm had relatively good AF detection ability. Three types of experiments were designed to test the performance of the system. (1) Test the accuracy and time/memory cost of the AF detection algorithm. (2) Compare the proposed device with the standard device Shimmer. (3) Use the simulator to test the effectiveness of the system.
