Asking For Self, Male 37, lahore
aoa. sometimes atrial fibrillation sign comes up on digiral blood pressure monitor . how accurate it is to diagnose atrial fibrillation. I have done my ecg which Alhamdulillah came normal . does it happen due to anxiety? as I have anxiety issues. thanks
I will advise you 24 holter to confirm it.Blood pressure monitor is totally inaccurate for Atrial fibr.
Not accurate. if having palpitations other test needed.
bp monitor is not a good marker for diagnosing atrial fibrillation. if episodic then go ahead with 24 hours holter monitoring.

Mostly diagnose Clinically with irregular pulse and reflects on ECG with underlying pathology...otherwise not related with Anxiety. Visit my YouTube channel Dr.Mehdi Hassan Heartbeats for more information and about awareness of Heart diseases.
