A pragmatic approach for the detection of post-ablation atrial fibrillation recurrence
Symptom-driven electrocardiogram (ECG) recording plays a significant role in the detection of post-ablation atrial fibrillation recurrence (AFR). However, making timely medical contact whenever symptoms occur may not be practical. ...

AI can accurately predict potentially fatal cardiac events in firefighters
Firefighters regularly risk their lives in dangerous situations, but most deaths on duty are not directly caused by fire or smoke inhalation. Instead, approximately 40% of on-duty fatalities come from sudden cardiac death.
