Research

Mayo Clinic researchers with training in heart rhythm disorders study the diagnosis of heart conditions using electrocardiograms and other techniques in Mayo Clinic's Cardiovascular Research Center.

Some areas of research include:

  • Applying artificial intelligence with electrocardiograms to better diagnose and predict atrial fibrillation (AFib) and to diagnose conditions that have not been traditionally diagnosed with an electrocardiogram.
  • Learning how ambulance ECGs affect the outcomes of people having a heart attack.
  • Evaluating the overuse of certain heart tests in people with typical ECGs.
  • Improving the use of ECGs to guide heart procedures called catheter ablation.

At Mayo Clinic, you may have the opportunity to participate in clinical trials. Read more about the Heart Rhythm Disease Program in the Cardiovascular Research Center at Mayo Clinic.
