Feasibility and effectiveness of atrial fibrillation detection methods among high-risk patients in southwestern Uganda
REFNo: HS3976ES
1. Compare FitBit watch with Holter monitor in detecting the burden of atrial fibrillation among high-risk patients at MRRH. We will compare FitBit watches with the gold standard of Holter monitor for detection of atrial fibrillation among high-risk patients at the MRRH outpatient cardiology clinic. We will also calculate the prevalence of atrial fibrillation in our population and build a regression model for risk factors associated with atrial fibrillation.
2. Evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of implementing atrial fibrillation detection devices in Uganda. Embedded within our non-inferiority trial, we will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of implementing FitBit watches and Holter monitors using implementation metrics. For primary outcome, we will use the Proctor Model to assess key implementation, service, and client outcomes.
