Clinical Trial Summary

Atrial fibrillation is an abnormal beating of the heart that can lead to stroke or heart failure. Structural heart diseases are conditions that affect the heart valves or heart muscle and can cause permanent heart damage if left untreated. Sometimes people have atrial fibrillation or structural heart disease and do not know it. The purpose of this study is to evaluate two devices that can predict who has or may develop atrial fibrillation or structural heart disease based on the results of an electrocardiogram.
