Does a smartphone-based ECG recorder (Kardia Mobile) provide noninferior arrhythmia detection compared to an external loop recorder in patients with palpitations?
A smartphone-based ECG recorder (Kardia Mobile) is noninferior to a traditional external loop recorder for detecting symptomatic arrhythmias in outpatients with palpitations, offering a more portable and user-friendly alternative.
