Atrial Fibrillation is one of the most common cardiac arrhythmias that medical students are introduced. Confidence and experience gained from simulated training can help make first diagnosis successful and decrease risk to patients. This app uses interactive 3D anatomy and control of physiological parameters. Utilises electrophysiology simulation and live ECG signals to simulate Atrial Fibrillation on the heart rhythm.

TRAINING OBJECTIVES
Understand what causes the ECG signals during Atrial Fibrillation
Understand how to diagnose and treat Atrial Fibrillation
Explore the heart in 3D and gain spatial and temporal understanding of the normal and atrial fibrillation rhythm.

BENEFITS
Mobility. Users can access individualised simulation training on their personal devices anytime and anywhere
Guidance. Guided tutorials aid self-learning without the need for tutoring
Model pacing outcomes. Normal vs. pathology overlays make it easy to visually compare differences in pacing that would otherwise need to be imagined
Deeper understanding. Real-time interactive 3D anatomy and pacing wire placement provide spatial and temporal understanding of what causes the ECG signals and helps with retention
Realistic simulation. Real-time electrophysiology mode and on-screen controls for realistic training
Measure learning progress. Test mode allows users to complete a case and receive feedback on performance, helping with retention and identifying knowledge gaps.
