Lead-I ECG devices for detecting symptomatic atrial fibrillation using single time point testing in primary care

Recommendation ID: DG35/2
Question: The committee recommended that data should be collected to evaluate the system impact of adopting the lead‑I ECGs on both primary and secondary care. In particular, data should be collected on how ECGs generated by the devices would be interpreted in practice, including staff time needed to interpret the ECG traces and associated costs.
