Abstract
An atrial fibrillation monitor provides hand-contacting electrodes to allow daily ECG measurements of a patient without cumbersome electrode connection to the patient. ECG data may be diagnosed by the monitor to indicate likelihood of atrial fibrillation and an indication provided to the patient ECG data based on that indication may be forwarded to a physician or other healthcare professional for a review.
