Abstract

Purpose of review: To survey recent progress in the application of implantable and wearable sensors to detection and management of cardiac arrhythmias.

Recent findings: Sensor-enabled strategies are critical for the detection, prediction and management of arrhythmias. In the last several years, great innovation has occurred in the types of devices (implanted and wearable) that are available and the data they collect. The integration of artificial intelligence solutions into sensor-enabled strategies has set the stage for a new generation of smart devices that augment the human clinician. Smart devices enhanced by new sensor technologies and Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms promise to reshape the care of cardiac arrhythmias.

Keywords: Artificial Intelligence; Cardiac Devices; Remote Monitoring; Sensors; Smart Devices; Wearables.
