讲座摘要：Atrial fibrillation (AFib) currently affects the well-being of 7.7 million patients in the USA and more than 33.5 million worldwide. AFib occurs if rapid, disorganized electrical signals cause the heart's two upper chambers—called the atria to fibrillate. AFib can lead to stroke, heart failure, uncontrolled fainting and even death which results in a poor quality of life. A significant medical need for AFib patients can be met with the development of a take-home and long-term wearable arrhythmia monitoring system for people who are suspected of having paroxysmal (non-continuous, irregular) episodes of AFib as well as numerous other heart arrhythmias.  In fact, the accurate measurement of the percent of time or percent burden that a patient experiences these types of arrhythmogenic events can guide the course of therapy.
