Whether the U.S. is still a top choice for international students remains a question.
A study simulating a population of 30 million people 65 and older found that wrist-wearable devices are more cost-effective than traditional electrocardiograms and pulse palpation for atrial fibrillation (AF) screening, and that they are associated with a reduction in stroke incidence
For high-risk people 65 and up, wrist-worn technologies like smartwatches are a solid starting point, modeling data suggest.
Screening individuals for atrial fibrillation (AF) using wearable devices is more cost-effective than screening using conventional methods such as 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) and pulse palpation, or than no screening at all, researchers from Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) have found.
Screening for atrial fibrillation using wrist-worn devices is cost-effective compared with no screening or screening for AF using traditional methods, a new study concludes.
