The prevalence of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) grows with the ageing population. CUHK's Faculty of Medicine estimated that more than 60,000 elders suffering from AF are unaware of their condition. To raise awareness towards AF among the general public, the School of Pharmacy will organize CUAF Day to provide basic electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring for participants using an innovative mobile device. Cardiologists will analyse the recorded ECGs, and notify high-risk patients within three months after the event.
