This study will compare the Microlife device detected atrial fibrillation episodes to the pacemaker detected atrial fibrillation episodes.', 'detailedDescription': 'The modified Microlife blood pressure monitor is able to detect atrial fibrillation (AF) with high sensitivity (95%) and specificity (86%) and has a positive predictive value of 68% and negative predictive value of 98% for single readings. In addition, the modified device was also able to accurately classify the majority of the anomalous non-AF rhythms, although the specificity was highly variable, dependent upon the rhythm. However sinus rhythm was detected with a specificity of 97%. However, we do not currently know if the device would demonstrate a similar sensitivity in detecting AF in patients with paroxysmal AF.\n\nTherefore, the present study will assess the sensitivity and specificity of the automated oscillometric device using a new AF algorithm among pacemaker patients with fast AF and atrial high-rate episodes and evaluate the effect of the specific rhythm abnormalities on the specificity for AF.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': "Patients who have an implanted pacemaker for sick sinus syndrome with previously documented AF with atrial high-rate episodes, with be identified from the pacemaker clinic register at one NHS Trust.
