Using smartwatch data to predict cardiac arrest
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial uses data from smartwatches and smartphones to better predict and recognize cardiac arrest. If you are a healthy volunteer or have had a heart event, your device data could help improve emergency care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Age 18 to 70 years old.
- You are either a healthy volunteer (no history of heart problems) or someone who has had a major heart event (like a heart attack or cardiac arrest).
- You use a smartwatch or smartphone that automatically collects health data (like heart rate).
- You can access and export that data from your device.
- You wore your device regularly (no more than 24 hours off) and for at least 4 weeks before the event.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at witnessed sudden cardiac arrest happening in residential areas, and tests whether a new first-responder approach gets help to people faster. It may help improve outcomes after cardiac arrest by improving the timing and coordination of emergency response.
This trial uses a special EEG device (Brainstatus) to measure brain activity in people who are still unconscious after a cardiac arrest. The goal is to see if certain brain waves can predict a good recovery.
This trial tests whether using a machine to pump blood and oxygen (ECPR) right after a witnessed cardiac arrest with a shockable rhythm can improve survival. You might be eligible if you had a witnessed arrest, got bystander CPR, and your first rhythm was shockable, as long as the emergency team can reach the hospital in 30 minutes.
This trial tests a treatment that uses a blood pressure cuff on your arms to try to protect your brain and organs after your heart stopped outside the hospital. You will be in the intensive care unit, and the study will check if this simple 'remote conditioning' can improve recovery.
This study tests if using a wearable smartwatch can help manage your health after leaving the hospital following a heart attack. It aims to improve recovery by tracking your activity and health data.
This trial tests whether a smartwatch can help detect early warning signs of another heart event in people who have recently had a heart attack and have a stent. It is for people with mild heart weakness and high blood pressure who have not yet started cardiac rehab.
