Arrhythmias are a big problem for people. A special place among all the arrhythmias takes atrial fibrillation (or atrial fibrillation, AF). To date, there are no simple and quick methods to control human atrial biomechanics, and there is no monitoring systems to track the patient\'s condition over time. It is required as soon as possible to identify patients heart abnormalities to reduce the risk of complications. We conducted a series of experiments to determine the electrical impedance assemblies location on the patient\'s chest to assess the right atrium wall motion and hemodynamic heart monitoring. The experiments were conducted in healthy volunteers and patients with an established diagnosis «atrial fibrillation». For the experimental data we used rheocardio system REO-32. The study found that using rheocardio studies can detect right atrium wall motion abnormalities, even in patients with AF in remission. The optimal location of the electrode assembly was found to obtain data on the right atrium biomechanics, and also was revealed changes in the signals obtained in patients with AF.
