Irregular Heart Rhythm

Samsung's top-end Galaxy Watch is well-equipped for durability but also packs a ton of health and activity tracking and monitoring features. While several of these have been available at launch. Samsung has finally started rolling out an update which brings the Irregular Heart Rhythm Notifications (IHRN) feature to its most premium smartwatch model...

Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 and other previous models in India will now support the Irregular Heart Rhythm Notification (IHRM) feature, the company announced on Wednesday. This feature will leverage the BioActive Sensor on Samsung’s range of smartwatches to alert the wearer of abnormalities in heart rhythm which might be indicative of atrial fibrillat...

Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 series is expected to launch at the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event this year, most likely to be held in July. There have been speculations over the design and specifications of the upcoming smartwatches. Samsung has now confirmed that they will be equipped with a very useful heart health feature.

A new study claimed Wearable devices such as smartwatches could be used to detect a higher risk of developing heart failure and irregular heart rhythms in later life.

As per WHO, hypertension symptoms include nosebleeds, irregular heart rhythms, early morning headaches, vision changes, and buzzing in the ears.

Fitbit has started rolling out Irregular Heart Rhythm Notifications to nine of its products. Fitbit had recently received clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the company’s new photoplethysmography (PPG) algorithm to identify atrial fibrillation (AFib). The smartwatches that support the new feature includes Fitbit Sense, F...

World Heart Rhythm Week is observed from 7 June to 13 June. It is an annual awareness week that focuses on detecting Arrhythmia.

It is open to individuals in the United States who are over 22 years of age over and own Fitbit devices that can track heart rates, such as the Ionic (review) and Versa (review) models. Fitbit aims to enrll hundreds of thousands of people for the study.

Cardiac arrest occurs when the heart goes into an irregular rhythm and then stops beating completely. It is different from a heart attack (or myocardial infarction).

A new study has warned that cutting out carbs from your diet can result in heart rhythm disorders such as atrial fibrillation or (AFib), which is an indicator of serious heart complications.

Using blood thinners in patients with worsening heart failure, coronary artery disease or irregular heart rhythms was associated with a 17% reduced risk of thromboembolic events, such as stroke and heart attack.

The ECG app and irregular heart rhythm notification feature both are notably limited to Apple Watch Series 4.

Regular moderate alcohol consumption (an average of 14 glasses per week) results in more electrical evidence of scarring and impairment in electrical signalling compared with non-drinkers and light drinkers.

Apple announced the heart features in September, but didn't make them available until Thursday. The features are US-only for now.

Apple Watch Series 4 debuted in September with an all-new Digital Crown and electrical heart rate sensor to enable the ECG functionality.
