Wearable heart monitor during heart defect closure
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses a wearable ECG monitor to track heart rhythm before and after a procedure to close a hole in the heart. It aims to detect irregular heartbeats early, which may help prevent complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 19 years old or older.
- You are scheduled to have a procedure to close an atrial septal defect or patent foramen ovale (types of holes in the heart).
- You do not have a history of atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat condition).
- You are expected to live at least 12 more months.
- You can provide written consent to participate.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial looks at whether a special 3D ultrasound picture helps doctors safely place a small device to close an atrial septal defect (ASD), a hole in the heart’s upper chambers. If you need ASD closure and are suitable for a device, the results could help improve guidance and outcomes.
This study follows up with patients who already received the Cera ASD occluder device to close a hole in the heart (atrial septal defect). It looks at how well the device is working over time and checks for any late problems.
This trial tests whether a medicine called a beta-blocker can help prevent abnormal heart rhythms after a procedure to close a hole in the heart (PFO closure). If you are planning to have this closure, the medicine might reduce the risk of irregular heartbeats.
This study tests a new dissolvable device that closes a common heart defect called a patent foramen ovale (PFO), which can cause strokes. The device is designed to prevent future strokes and eventually break down in the body.
This study uses a special balloon (AcuMark™ Sizing Balloon) to help doctors measure the exact size of a heart hole (atrial septal defect) before closing it. The goal is to make sure the closure device fits properly.
This study tests whether a connected watch can help monitor an irregular heart rhythm (atrial fibrillation) after heart surgery. It looks at people who develop new atrial fibrillation after surgery and compares how well monitoring works over the next 12 months.
