Abstract
Due to the low detectability of atrial fibrillation (AF), more attention is paid to AF screening. Screening procedure requires new diagnostic devices that allow immediate assessment of heart activity. One such portable device is the MyDyagnostick 1001R.
The aim. Сomparison of the clinical effectiveness of screening in people who participated in the preventive health examinations and in patients with AF risk factors admitted to the City geriatric medical hospital.
Materials and methods. 101 patients hospitalized to City geriatric medical center were included using the method of continuous selection. Another sample of patients included 102 volunteers who participated in a preventive health examinations organized by the City center for medical prevention in St. Petersburg (convenience sample). Heart activity was registered with portable device MyDyagnostick 1001R.
Results. AF was diagnosed in 25 (24.8%) patients from geriatric medical center were. Of these, 12 patients were not suspected of having AF. Among the volunteers undergoing a routine examination, AF was found in 5 people, 3 of whom had paroxysmal AF in anamnesis.
Conclusions. In a population of individuals with risk factors, AF was detected in 24.8% of cases; in 48%, AF was not previously detected using standard registration methods, which is in favor of periodic screening of AF in a population with risk factors for its development. In the population of participants of preventive health examinations, AF was found in 5 people, which indicates a low detectability of AF not at risk. Significant signs indicating possible AF were a feeling of palpitations and a history of stroke, which may confirm the need for screening for AF of persons with such symptoms.
In screening purposes portable device MyDyagnostick 1001R may be used effectively.
