@gloaming I think in the absence of conducting a reliable experiment, it is reasonable to rely on data from the internet and personal experience regarding the relative efficacy of the two devices, which is the same way many of us on this forum have become "knowledgeable" about all things Afib.

@nevets My point was not that it is unreasonable, but that it might not be salutary...or wise. In fact, it might be dangerous to rely on confirmatory, or hopeful, information that is not confirmed using other sources of information, especially when your two available sources are contradictory. This is a textbook example of when a patient should seek confirmatory information to rule out a potentially harmful disorder.
