Total AF duration (hr) 18.2 (7.8–95.6) 43.5 (15.1–136.6) 0.7 (0.2–9.0) < 0.001
Duration of longest episode (min) 633.0 (103.0–2,640) 1,135 (440.5–5,493) 17.5 (1.1–467.0) 0.001

AF = atrial fibrillation, IQR = interquartile range.

aDenominator includes all patients with patch-detected AF and available duration data. Three participants with patch-detected AF did not have duration data.

bp: from Wilcoxon rank-sum test.
