Abstract

Abstract: Background: Atrial fibrillation (AFIB) is one of the most common types of arrhythmia, which leads to heart failure and stroke to public. As AFIB has the high potential to cause permanent disability in patients, its early detection is extremely important. There are different types of AFIB classification algorithm that have been proposed by researchers in recent years. Methods: This paper reviews the features of AFIB in terms of ECG morphological features and heart rate variability (HRV) analysis on different methods. The existing classification method, particularly focusing on Artificial Intelligence technique, is also comprehensively described. Other than that, the existing implementation technology of arrhythmia detection platforms such as smart phone and System-on-Chip-based embedded device are also elaborated in terms of their design trade-offs. Conclusion: Current existing AFIB detection algorithm cannot compromise for high accuracy and low complexity. Due to the limitation of embedded system, design trade off should be considered to strike the balance between the performance of algorithm and the limitation.
