In patients with cryptogenic stroke, the detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) is important, since it is an indication for the prescription of oral anticoagulation, instead of anti-platelet therapy, to decrease the chance of a recurrent ischaemic cer...
BACKGROUND: The electrocardiogram (ECG) has been widely used in the diagnosis of heart disease such as arrhythmia due to its simplicity and non-invasive nature. Arrhythmia can be classified into many types, including life-threatening and non-life-thr...
