BACKGROUND: The opaque nature of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms has led to distrust in medical contexts, particularly in the treatment and monitoring of atrial fibrillation. Although previous studies in explainable AI have demonstrated poten...
BACKGROUND: Transcatheter left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) is an alternative to lifelong anticoagulation, but optimal patient selection remains challenging.
Cardiac rhythm disorders can manifest in various ways, such as the heart rate being too fast (tachycardia) or too slow (bradycardia), irregular heartbeats (like atrial fibrillation-AF, ventricular fibrillation-VF), or the initiation of heartbeats in ...
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a prevalent arrhythmia associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Despite advancements in ablation techniques, predicting recurrence of AF remains a challenge, necessitating reliable models to identif...
BACKGROUND: Although catheter ablation (CA) is currently the most effective clinical treatment for atrial fibrillation, its variable therapeutic effects among different patients present numerous problems. Machine learning (ML) shows promising potenti...

BACKGROUND: There is no effective way to accurately predict paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) subtypes unless electrocardiogram (ECG) observation is obtained. We aim to develop a predictive model using a machine learning algorithm fo...
In recent years, wearable devices such as smartwatches and smart patches have revolutionized biosignal acquisition and analysis, particularly for monitoring electrocardiography (ECG). However, the limited power supply of these devices often precludes...

OBJECTIVE: Telehealth paradigms are essential for remotely managing patients with chronic conditions. To assist clinicians in handling the large volumes of data collected through these systems, clinical decision support systems (CDSSs) have been deve...
BMC medical informatics and decision making
Jan 21, 2025
BACKGROUND: As the incidence and prevalence of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) proliferate worldwide, the condition has become the epicenter of a plethora of ECG diagnostic research. In recent diagnostic methodologies, Morse Continuous Wavelet Transform (Ms...
