ECG app

My heart rate is below 50 so ECG cannot detect Atrial Fibrillation. Is there any way around this?

Walk around a bit then take it.

ECG is a one off operation that you can do after a little exercise .


AF history or abnormal rhythm detection is continuous and does not need a minimum rate.
