An Apple Watch showing the numbers that track a typical run. A fitbit watch showing conditions for a workout A Garmin watch tracking activity and health data. Many devices primarily intended as smartwatches also function as fitness trackers. An early example was the Apple Watch, which has offered fitness tracker functions since 2014. [15]
Atrial fibrillation is associated with an increased risk of heart failure, dementia, and stroke. [3] [12] It is a type of supraventricular tachycardia. [14] Atrial fibrillation frequently results from bursts of tachycardia that originate in muscle bundles extending from the atrium to the pulmonary veins. [15]

In the context of atrial fibrillation, the Ashman phenomenon is a form of aberrancy. Aberrancy is due to prematurity in which part of the conduction system is still refractory and cannot conduct the premature depolarization. This effect can sometimes be seen in the setting of a faster heart rate (tachycardia) and so is termed "rate-related ...
Fibrillation can affect the atrium (atrial fibrillation) or the ventricle (ventricular fibrillation): ventricular fibrillation is imminently life-threatening. Atrial fibrillation affects the upper chambers of the heart, known as the atria. Atrial fibrillation may be due to serious underlying medical conditions and should be evaluated by a ...
Anticoagulants: To prevent embolization.. Beta blockers: To block the effects of certain hormones on the heart to slow the heart rate.. Calcium Channel Blockers: Help slow the heart rate by blocking the number of electrical impulses that pass through the AV node into the lower heart chambers (ventricles).
A heart rate monitor (HRM) is a personal monitoring device that allows one to measure/display heart rate in real time or record the heart rate for later study. It is largely used to gather heart rate data while performing various types of physical exercise.
