This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether a home-based sleep apnea screening can help people with atrial fibrillation better manage their condition. Sleep apnea—when breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep—is common in people with irregular heartbeats and can make the condition worse. Researchers want to see if finding and treating sleep apnea at home improves quality of life, health behaviors, and heart rhythm control.
Sleep apnea is very common in people with atrial fibrillation but often goes undiagnosed. This screening method could help catch the problem earlier and make it easier for patients to get tested without having to travel to a hospital, potentially leading to better overall health outcomes.

You will be randomly assigned to either receive a home-based sleep apnea screening or to a control group that does not receive screening at this time. If you are in the screening group, you will use a portable device at home to test for sleep apnea, guided by a decentralized (remote) platform. Researchers will track how this screening affects your well-being, health behaviors, and heart rhythm over time.
