Atrial Fibrillation Screening Video Transcript:
Life Line Screening’s atrial fibrillation screening can detect an irregular heart rhythm. After age 40, one in 4 adults will develop it in their lifetime. The reason that it is important to be screened is that atrial fibrillation can increase your chance of a stroke 5 times and often doesn’t have any symptoms. An EKG electrode placed on the arms and legs can be administered without the removal of any clothing. The test is painless and can detect a fast and irregular heartbeat so that you can share your results with your physician who will develop a treatment plan.
