(the ekg shows the atrial activity, for example fibrillation, but the stethoscope doesn't. From the valve closings that we
hear with the stethoscope, we don't know for sure if the atria are fibrillating. It seems that the best we can do is to listen
with the stethoscope while connected to an ekg and look for correlations between the stethoscope and ekg in order to
be able to identify afib later when using the stethoscope alone).
Is this saying that when a doctor or their assistant is using a stethoscope they can't for sure know if a person is in AF?

30 seconds if fine, but I can tell in 5 seconds with fingers on my carotid pulse.
