How does Atrial Fibrillation affect ICG technology?

0

ICG technology looks at the relationship between the mechanical activity (the ICG waveform) and the electrical activity (the ECG waveform) in order to determine the stroke volume on a beat-by-beat basis. For an ICG beat to be determined valid, certain proprietary acceptance criteria are applied. A-fib is a condition that often causes irregular beat-to-beat electrical and mechanical activity. As such, erratic ventricular filling may or may not occur and thus the ECG and ICG waveforms vary widely from beat-to-beat as well as from patient-to-patient.
