Smartwatch vs. Holter for heart rhythm detection
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests if a smartwatch can detect irregular heartbeats as well as a standard Holter monitor. If you have symptoms like palpitations, pre-syncope, or dizziness and are already scheduled for a Holter test, this trial may offer a simpler way to monitor your heart.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Age between 18 and 80 years old
- Referred for a Holter test due to palpitations, pre-syncope, or dizziness
- No previous heart rhythm diagnosis that explains your symptoms
- Not pregnant
- Own a compatible smartphone (Android 9.0+ or iOS 15+)

This trial tests whether a special smartwatch can record heart rhythm during palpitations as well as a traditional Holter monitor. If you have unexplained palpitations and are willing to wear the watch, your participation could help doctors find better ways to diagnose heart rhythm issues.
This trial tests a smartwatch tool to track heart rhythm and detect problems in people with heart disease. It may help find irregular heartbeats early during routine checkups.
This study is testing whether a connected watch (like a smartwatch) can accurately record your heart's electrical activity (an ECG) during a hospital stay or clinic visit. If it works well, it could make checking your heart easier and more convenient.
This study checks how accurately a smartwatch can detect heart rhythm and electrical “wiring” problems compared with a standard heart test. If it works well, it could help make heart monitoring easier and more accessible.
This study compares a new wearable heart monitor (HeartWatch) that you wear on your left bicep to the standard Holter monitor. It aims to see if the HeartWatch is as good at recording your heart's rhythm over 24-48 hours, so you might have a more comfortable option for heart monitoring.
This study checks whether a smartwatch can spot an irregular heartbeat called atrial fibrillation soon after on-pump heart surgery. If the smartwatch works well, it could help clinicians find the problem earlier after surgery.
