Screening for heart valve disease with a single-lead ECG
Part of Digestive system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a simple single-lead heart monitor (ECG) can spot problems with your heart valves. It may be a quick, easy way to screen for valve disease.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study is testing whether a new way of measuring heart signals (using chest patches) can help doctors tell if someone has heart valve disease. It may help improve diagnosis without using more invasive tests.
This study uses sound recordings from your heart (during an ultrasound) to see if it can detect early signs of heart disease. If you are already scheduled for both a heart ultrasound and an angiogram (a dye test of your heart arteries) at Cambridge, your participation may help find heart problems sooner.
This study enrolls adults in the hospital with certain heart valve problems to track their health over time. It may help doctors better understand how valve disease behaves and what outcomes look like in real life.
This study tests whether a simple, single-lead ECG (a quick heart tracing) can help doctors detect a blood clot in the lungs (pulmonary embolism). It may lead to a faster, easier way to check for this condition.
This trial tests if a simple single-wire ECG can help spot heart problems or related conditions. It may help by making heart screening easier and faster.
This trial is testing a new way to check for heart valve problems using your recent ECG (heart electrical test). If you're 60 to 85 and haven't had recent heart imaging or known valve disease, you may qualify.
