Why the study?
Is screening for atrial fibrillation using a smartphone electrocardiograph (iECG) during influenza vaccinations by primary care nurses feasible?
Is screening for atrial fibrillation using a smartphone electrocardiograph (iECG) during influenza vaccinations by primary care nurses feasible?
Screening for atrial fibrillation using a smartphone ECG during routine influenza vaccination is a feasible and acceptable workflow in primary care.
May support nurse-led iECG screening at vaccination visits; leaves open effects on AF detection and outcomes.
Screening with iECG during influenza vaccination by primary care nurses is feasible and well accepted by practice staff. Addressing barriers is likely to increase uptake.
