British researchers have created an AI tool that detects individuals at risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) before symptoms develop, potentially preventing strokes. Developed by the University of Leeds and Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, the tool analyzes electronic health records, including factors like age and existing conditions, to assess risk. Currently tested in West Yorkshire, high-risk patients receive portable ECG devices for monitoring, with plans to expand the trial if successful.
