Abstract

|
In the field of arrhythmia, the significance of wearable devices is steadily increasing. These devices are becoming increasingly recognized not only among patients and physicians but also among the general population. Atrial fibrillation, in particular, benefits significantly from these devices in both diagnosis and treatment of this disease. However, there is a tendency to overlook various challenges associated with wearables. These include limitations in diagnostic accuracy, an inability to evaluate various types of cardiac arrhythmias, potential increases in patient anxiety, and the demands placed on expert physicians due to the vast amounts of data produced by wearable devices. This article emphasizes that while wearable devices play a pivotal role in cardiac arrhythmia diagnosis, areas for improvement remain.
