Use of <scp>Single</scp> Lead <scp>ECG</scp> to Assist Cardioversion in <scp>Atrial</scp> Fibrillation in the Emergency Department ( <scp>SELECTED</scp> ): Proof of Concept Study
Selected patients presenting to emergency departments with recent onset atrial fibrillation can be discharged home with an expectation that they will revert spontaneously to sinus rhythm, potentially reducing unnecessary electrical cardioversion. Remote electrocardiograph monitoring was feasible for identifying patients who failed to revert to sinus rhythm, allowing timely recall to the emergency department for scheduled cardioversion.
