Intermittent rhythm monitoring (IRM) to detect atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence is employed to evaluate the success of therapeutic interventions. In a large population of patients with continuous monitoring (CM), we investigated the sensitivity of various frequencies and durations of IRM strategies on the detection of AF recurrence, the dynamics behind AF recurrence detection, and we describe measures to evaluate temporal AF recurrence.
