Description

Matteo Gadaleta and six co-authors build a model that predicts a near-term risk of atrial fibrillation from home heart tracings, in a research paper from 2023. This irregular rhythm raises the risk of stroke and heart failure. In its on-and-off form, it can hide even during two weeks of monitoring.

The team trained a deep learning model on hundreds of thousands of patch recordings that showed no faulty rhythm. From just one clean day of tracing, plus age and rhythm features, the model sorted people by risk over the next two weeks with good accuracy. The authors say it could guide who gets longer or repeat monitoring, so treatment can start sooner.
