Blood pressure monitor for atrial fibrillation detection
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests if an electronic blood pressure monitor can detect atrial fibrillation, a common heart rhythm problem, in people aged 60 and older. It aims to make screening easier and more accessible.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Age 60 or older

This trial tests a blood pressure monitor that can also detect atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). You may join if you are 22 or older, have an average-sized arm, and either have been diagnosed with AF or have never had it — as long as you don't have a pacemaker or defibrillator.
This trial uses a special long-term heart monitor (one wire) that uses artificial intelligence to find new cases of atrial fibrillation, a type of irregular heartbeat that can increase stroke risk. If you're 60 or older and haven't had AF before, this study could help catch it early.
This trial tests if a smartwatch can accurately measure how often atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat) occurs. If you have AFib and can wear a watch, you may help doctors find a simpler way to track your condition.
This study tests whether wearing a small heart rhythm patch at home can detect irregular heartbeats in people with high blood pressure. It may help catch heart rhythm problems early before they cause symptoms.
This trial tests whether extended monitoring can detect hidden atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) in people who have had a stroke. If found, treatment can help prevent another stroke.
This trial uses a simple, handheld ECG device (like a small card) to check your risk for atrial fibrillation, a common irregular heartbeat. You'll record short heart tracings at home, and the study team will review them to find hidden risk factors.
