flag Researchers developed an AI tool to predict atrial fibrillation using patient records, aiming to prevent strokes.

flag Scientists and clinicians at the University of Leeds have created an AI tool that predicts atrial fibrillation (AF), a heart condition causing irregular heartbeats, by analyzing GP records for risk factors like age, sex, ethnicity, and existing medical conditions. flag The tool, tested in the "Find-AF" trial funded by the British Heart Foundation, identifies high-risk patients and offers them a handheld ECG machine to monitor their heart rhythm. flag If AF is detected, GPs are informed to discuss treatment options, potentially preventing strokes.
