Over the past few years, smartwatches have become increasingly popular in the monitoring of arrhythmias. Although the detection of atrial fibrillation with smartwatches has been the subject of various articles, there is no comprehensive research on the detection of arrhythmias other than atrial fibrillation. In this study, we included individual cases from the literature to identify the characteristics of patients with smartwatch-detected arrhythmias other than atrial fibrillation.
PubMed, Embase, and SCOPUS were searched for case reports, case series, or cohort studies that reported individual participant-level data, until January 6, 2022. The following search string was used for each databases: ('Smart Watch' OR 'Apple Watch' OR 'Samsung Gear') AND ('Supraventricular Tachycardia' OR 'Cardiac Arrhythmia' OR 'Ventricular Tachycardia' OR 'Atrioventricular Nodal Reentry Tachycardia' OR 'Atrioventricular Reentrant Tachycardia' OR 'Heart Block' OR 'Atrial Flutter' OR 'Ectopic Atrial Tachycardia' OR 'Bradyarrhythmia').
A total of 52 studies from PubMed, 20 studies from Embase, and 200 studies from SCOPUS were identified. After screening, 18 articles were included. A total of 22 patients were obtained from 14 case reports or case series. Four cohort studies evaluating various arrhythmias were included. Arrhythmias, including ventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia, atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia, second- or third-degree atrioventricular block, and sinus bradycardia, were detected with smartwatches.
Cardiac arrhythmias other than atrial fibrillation are also commonly detected with smartwatches. Smartwatches have an important potential besides traditional methods in the detection of arrhythmias and clinical practice.
在过去的几年中，智能手表在心律失常监测方面变得越来越流行。尽管使用智能手表检测心房颤动已经成为各种文章的主题，但对于除心房颤动以外的心律失常的检测尚无全面的研究。在这项研究中，我们纳入了文献中的个别病例，以确定除心房颤动以外的智能手表检测到的心律失常患者的特征。
在 PubMed、Embase 和 SCOPUS 中搜索了直到 2022 年 1 月 6 日为止报告了个体参与者水平数据的病例报告、病例系列或队列研究。每个数据库都使用了以下搜索字符串：（“智能手表”或“Apple Watch”或“Samsung Gear”）和（“室上性心动过速”或“心律失常”或“室性心动过速”或“房室结折返性心动过速”或“房室折返性心动过速”或“心脏阻滞”或“心房扑动”或“异位性心房心动过速”或“心动过缓”）。
从 PubMed 中确定了 52 项研究，从 Embase 中确定了 20 项研究，从 SCOPUS 中确定了 200 项研究。筛选后，纳入了 18 篇文章。从 14 篇病例报告或病例系列中获得了总共 22 名患者。纳入了 4 项评估各种心律失常的队列研究。使用智能手表检测到了心律失常，包括室性心动过速、心房颤动、心房扑动、房室结折返性心动过速、房室折返性心动过速、二度或三度房室阻滞和窦性心动过缓。
除了心房颤动以外，智能手表还能经常检测到其他心律失常。除了传统方法外，智能手表在心律失常的检测和临床实践中具有重要的潜在作用。
