Study type | Interventional |
This is a two-center, randomized controlled trial of 100 patients comparing intervention (KardiaMobile) with standard of care. Kardia Mobile is an FDA approved device that allows one- or six lead ECG recording for 30 seconds using the patient's smart phone. The device has a automated algorithm that interprets the ECG as either sinus rhythm, AF, or unclassified. The intervention arm will be given a KardiaMobile device, free of charge, to be synched to their smartphone at the time of enrollment. They will be instructed on proper device procedure and will use the device with the onset of potential AF-related symptoms (e.g. chest pressure, palpitations, lightheadedness, syncope, shortness of breath, or other symptoms concerning for a cardiac etiology) or when requested to do so by their healthcare provider. The device ECG recordings will be transmitted to participants physicians through MyChart who will incorporate this information into the patient's treatment as indicated. All files will be stored on a private, secure platform and any subsequent communication from the clinical team will occur via standard clinical channels (MyChart or telephone contact). Healthcare utilization will be assessed by having the participants in both groups complete a questionnaire asking how many times they used their KardiaMobile device (if randomized to this group) and how many office appointments, emergency department visits, and hospital admissions they had within that six-month period.

Secondary | To compare participants healthcare-related satisfaction through a questionnaire that will ask the participants at baseline and at 6 months how satisfied they are or have been with their AF care. | At baseline the investigators will ask participants questions about their current satisfaction with their standard to care related to their atrial fibrillation. Then at six months, the investigators will ask participants the same questions asked at baseline to assess their satisfaction with their care over the past six months. | 6 Months |
