Atrial fibrillation, also called AFib or AF, is the most common type of treated heart arrhythmia. AF increases a person’s risk for stroke. Strokes caused by complications from AF are usually more severe than strokes with other causes. However, with timely detection and treatment of AF, the stroke risk can be remarkably reduced. The risk […]

Atrial fibrillation – an irregular and often rapid heart rhythm or ‘arrhythmia’ – is an increasingly common condition estimated to affect 7.6 million people over the age of 65 in the EU.1 Patients with atrial fibrillation have a five times higher risk of stroke. In fact, the condition is responsible for between 20 and 30 […]
Movesense Medical sensor is practical tool for developing new wearable solutions for healthcare and wellbeing. It measures heart rate, single channel ECG, and movement with 9-axis inertial measurement unit. The sensor can be programmed to meet the needs of various use cases ranging from clinical assessment to health monitoring in home environment. With roots in […]
Good balance is an essential element of human performance for everyone in daily life and is something most of us take for granted. When balance and movement become impaired though, for instance after a trauma or sports related concussion (SRC), age-related degeneration, lower limb injuries, or osteoarthritis, the impact can be far-reaching. Measuring and understanding […]
Concussion affects performance Sport related concussion (SRC) affects human performance in many ways. There is a need to improve the clinical identification and management processes of concussions. This thesis studied the multimodal performance-based measurements in SRC of Finnish professional male ice hockey players aged 16 to 40 years (years 2009-2010, n=113; 2012-2014, n=185). The first […]
