La FDA ha autorizado el algoritmo de Fitbit, que permitir\u00e1 realizar un monitoreo constante del ritmo cardiaco, ya que antes el wearable solo realizada a medici\u00f3n si el usuario lo indicaba de forma manual. En este sentido el dispositivo ahora realizar\u00e1 monitoreos constantes y notificar\u00e1 al usuario sobre ritmo cardiaco irregular y si hay riesgo de fibrilaci\u00f3n auricular. La fibrilaci\u00f3n auricular, es un padecimiento dif\u00edcil de detectar ya que los s\u00edntomas var\u00edan en cada persona y algunas veces puede no haberlos. A nivel mundial, esta condici\u00f3n afecta a m\u00e1s de 33 millones de personas, quienes tienen cinco veces mayor riesgo de sufrir un ataque al coraz\u00f3n. El algoritmo de fotopletismograf\u00eda para la detecci\u00f3n de fibrilaci\u00f3n auricular (PPG Habib, en ingl\u00e9s) cuenta con validaci\u00f3n cl\u00ednica y funciona de la siguiente forma: Cuando el coraz\u00f3n late, el cuerpo se expande y se contrae basado en los cambios del volumen de la sangre. El sensor opci\u00f3n para el monitoreo del ritmo cardiaco de Fitbit puede detectar esos movimientos desde la mu\u00f1eca. De esta forma puede medir el ritmo cardiaco de forma constante mientras el algoritmo analiza signos potenciales de ritmo cardiaco irregular o fibrilaci\u00f3n atrial. \u201cDebido a que la AFib puede ser tan espor\u00e1dica, la forma \u00f3ptima de detectarla es a trav\u00e9s de la tecnolog\u00eda de seguimiento de la frecuencia card\u00edaca cuando el cuerpo est\u00e1 quieto o en reposo, lo que hace que la detecci\u00f3n durante la noche cuando las personas duermen sea especialmente importante\u201d, explic\u00f3 Google en su blog. De esta forma, Fitbit puede monitorear la frecuencia cardiaca durante todo el d\u00eda y alertar al usuario en caso de encontrar potenciales afectaciones. \u201cQueremos que la detecci\u00f3n de AFib sea lo m\u00e1s accesible posible para ayudar a reducir el riesgo de eventos potencialmente mortales, como un accidente cerebrovascular, y, en \u00faltima instancia, mejorar la salud card\u00edaca general para todos\u201d, concluye Google en su comunicado.
