This document presents a study that uses neuro-fuzzy modeling to predict the onset of atrial fibrillation (AF) in postoperative patients using electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters. The researchers developed a neuro-fuzzy network using 15 ECG parameters from 45 subjects. The network consisted of 7 rules and was able to distinguish AF prone patients from controls with good performance. Testing over the last 9 hours before AF onset showed potential for predicting AF onset by monitoring trends in the developed AF prediction index value. The researchers propose refining the model and conducting further testing and a clinical trial to evaluate prediction of AF onset.
