In recent years, there has been an emergence of long-term cardiac monitoring devices, particularly as they relate to nonprescribed, user-initiated, wearable- and/or, smartphone-based devices. With these new available data, practitioners are challenged to interpret these data in the context of routine clinical decision-making. While there are many potential uses for long-term rhythm monitoring, in this review, we will focus on the evolving role of this technology in atrial fibrillation (AF) monitoring after catheter and/or surgical ablation. Here, we explore the landscape of prescription-based tools for long-term rhythm monitoring; investigate commercially available technologies that are accessible directly to patients, and look towards the future with investigative technologies that could have a growing role in this space.
近年来,出现了一些长期心脏监测设备,尤其是那些非处方的、用户发起的、可穿戴和/或基于智能手机的设备。随着这些新的可用数据的出现,临床医生面临着在常规临床决策背景下解读这些数据的挑战。尽管长期节律监测有许多潜在的用途,但在本次综述中,我们将重点关注这项技术在导管和/或手术后房颤(AF)监测中的作用变化。在这里,我们探讨了长期节律监测的处方工具的现状;研究了可直接提供给患者的商业上可用的技术,并展望了未来具有增长潜力的研究技术在该领域的作用。
