Heart for Heart

Hi All, Heart for Heart is a joint initiative of UK/US based Arrhythmia Alliance, NL based Happitech, and US based Bug Labs with the support of the Dutch Heart Association. The goal of Heart for Heart is to speed up the development and accuracy of our technology to help detect heart rhythm disorders. In the same way, you donate your money for a good cause, we are asking you to donate 90 seconds of your heart rhythm data We are currently developing a technology that enables screening the most common heart rhythm disorder (Atrial Fibrillation AF) using only your smartphone. To speed up the development of the technology, we have setup this crowdsourcing and awareness initiative alongside our clinical trials. The data generated by Heart for Heart will be used to better differentiate between AF and a regular heartbeat rhythm and create insights into new health correlations. This technology will help patients to diagnose a heart rhythm disorder, 24/7, without extra hardware and allow them to share the data with their physicians from the comfort of their living rooms. In order for it to be adopted, the smartphone method should be extremely accurate, robust and reliable to minimise false positive and -negative results. When the technology is introduced, it will alter the way Cardiologists work. We look forward to your questions!
