Summary

This study was designed to screen high risk patients in nursing homes for atrial fibrillation with intermittent electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings using a portable, smartphone-based, mobile ECG recording device (Kardia Mobile, AliveCor, Inc.). The investigators hypothesized that screening patients with 2 or more risk factors for atrial fibrillation would yield a higher incidence of atrial fibrillation compared to prior studies.
