Safe exercise with atrial fibrillation
Exercise & lifestyle
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of arrhythmia, a disruption to the heart’s rhythm, that increases the risk of stroke.
It is particularly common in older people and those who exercise a lot, including athletes. This study will use heart monitor data from veteran athletes and people with pre-existing AF to establish which types of exercise are most associated with AF.
This information can then be used to generate guidelines for those at risk of, or with pre-existing AF, with regards to exercise to best manage the condition.
The development of a new AI-supported model for imaging the heart based on data from over 700 people with atrial fibrillation, allow ablation to be more personalised to individual patients.
