How does it work?
After a PVI ablation, a patient will traditionally be monitored with a (24h Holter) ECG before a follow-up consultation. FibriCheck is providing a digital alternative to this usual care pathway. In this digital-first pathway, the patient does not receive a ECG monitor, but is provided (remotely) with a FibriCheck prescription that allows him/her access to the certified FibriCheck app. This prescription also links the patient to the care team to ensure proper follow-up in the HCP portal.

Clinical evidence
FibriCheck has been extensively validated in over 80 peer-reviewed clinical
studies, including research on its real-world effectiveness in patients
undergoing pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and comparisons between
FibriCheck-enabled pathways and traditional care methods. Recent research by
Gruwez et al. showed the superiority of FibriCheck in post-PVI follow-up
compared to traditional ECG-monitoring in the DIGITOTAL study
(NCT05486364). In this study, FibriCheck detected twice as much AF
recurrence compared to a repeated 24h holter ECG and provided more
longitudinal insights in symptoms. FibriCheck also assessed AF load and
treatment effectiveness efficiently, thereby demonstrating superiority over
conventional care.
