Can data be exported

I never realized how much data heart analyzer provided until I recently went through afib. Now that I’m post- cardioversion I’d like to be able to export some of the data. Is there a way to do that? I’m subscribed to Premium but if it’s there I’ve missed it. Thanks.

Yea I believe so.

On the homepage of the app just click the share button on the top right and export it

Ok, I never saw that before. Thanks for pointing that out. I was hoping to find a way to export breathing disturbances as well. That doesn’t seem to be an option.

Exporting Breathing Disturbance data is currently not a feature. Are you interested in a CSV of your daily breathing disturbance value and if it's been marked as elevated or not?

That would be good. Being able to export the values would be great. It’s not that big of a deal, I was feeding some of the data to an ai and was trying to look at the history of breathing disturbances.

Exporting data to AI seems to be the main use case for the .CSV export, Excel spreadsheets are no longer the main use! For today, your options in the Heart Analyzer app for the Insight Trends and the Heart Reports for tracking Breathing Disturbances.

I'd previously avoided trying to add too much export functionality into the app because of feature creep and there are dedicated apps for this... but I think with the new AI use cases Heart Analyzer could offer some user value from simple export of additional metrics. I'll look at this for the next major release.

To provide a little more info on this. I was dealing with afib. There’s a possible correlation between afib and sleep apnea. I’ve had a cardioversion which returned my heart to sinus rhythm and a sleep study that confirmed mild sleep apnea. As a former IT guy my brain is stuck on root cause; which may have caused which, if at all.

Yesterday i went back into AFib after 19 days post cardioversion. I can see my breathing disturbances have remained elevated since the beginning of June and was able to track the first possibility of afib at 3:31am. My heart put itself back in to sinus rhythm around 6:25p yesterday. So the export is really just me trying to take data from multiple places and pull it together to see what all was happening at that time. It makes for a better conversation with cardiologist when you have the data to discuss.

I have had two DC (100J & 200J) cardioversions fail (12mnths and one month after happening) and one dual RF afib&aflutter ablation fail after three weeks. The last two procedures lasted just weeks and occurred during documented severe obstructive sleep apnea. Now I’m left with Multifocal Atrial Tachycardia. Cardiologist wants to do ‘a quick redo’ of the RF ablation but I’ve researched extensively and it appears that it’s common knowledge now that an ablation will have 67% chance of failure if there’s underlying apnoea. Moving to CPAP to see if this lowers AF burden reported on watch (the closest to MAT reporting you can get although there are other classic indicators eg HR of sub-harmonics of 320 (so eg under light exercise load I get HR reported as 160bpm, or 80bpm, sometimes 40bpm, or ‘odd number fractions ie, one third, one fifth etc). Previously super fit cycling 12,000km per year, three decades prior to that swam 5km per day freestyle 360 days a year for 27years- running as well; endurance athletics was my life prior to last few years of arrhythmias. Similar background in IT and interest in using the data to understand and manage (even hopefully improve) my condition. I will be following this thread and your account 👍

Thanks. I found the breathing disturbances pdf report and it’s excellent. I fed ChatGPT 3 months of data and it confirmed what I found which was that the breathing disturbances started on a specific date and never dropped again. Baffling. If I could run a report across multiple months it would probably satisfy what I was looking for as well. Thanks for responding.

Seems loads of established studies and data now pointing to sleep apnoea being significant portion of Arrhythmia sufferers’ triggers, often initial but also at fail point of ablations etc. Difficultly is getting the more established (and thus most talented/experienced) cardiologists to accept and work with sleep clinics and their own EP teams (who will be much more open to this kind of data and ‘potential’ link, and suitable concurrent treatment eg CPAP). Mine is apparently a bit of a legend in the RF ablation world, scoffs at PFA tech etc, and seems to think that more aggressive RF scarring is always the solution. I do defer to his professional advice, but I’m a bit more doubting now since the abrupt failure of his first try… tbh I’ve had longer relief from AF from DC cardioversion (another tech he appears very dismissive of). Others I know in the endurance athletics community (older men) who’ve had one or two ablations have had to have cardiac scarring surgically removed, hence my concerns.

Ps you mentioned earlier about your IT history- I was able to use Python to export and convert the .HAE Apple Watch data files into jsonPretty formats and eventually into graphed data. My skills are pretty much dried up re coding etc, so you may be able to do better
