Digital sound analysis for newborn heart screening
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses digital technology to analyze heart sounds in newborns under 30 days old. The goal is to develop a simple, non-invasive way to detect heart problems early using sound recordings.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby must be less than 30 days old (newborn to about 4 weeks)
- Your baby must weigh at least 1.5 kg (about 3.3 pounds)
- Your baby must be able to have an echocardiogram (an ultrasound of the heart)
- You must sign informed consent, agreeing your baby can participate

This study looks at how well a computer system can check children's health by listening to body sounds, like those from the heart, lungs, or belly. It is testing an AI system to see if it works well as an extra check alongside regular medical care.
This study tests whether a smartphone app can accurately detect inborn heart diseases by listening to heart sounds. Participation involves having your heart sounds recorded with a smartphone, which may help find problems earlier.
This study uses sound recordings from your heart (like a high-tech stethoscope) to see if early signs of heart disease can be detected. You may qualify if you are already having two common heart tests (angiogram and echocardiogram) within a 6-month period.
This study tests a new digital method for analyzing heart ultrasound images. Researchers want to see if computer software can help doctors read heart scans more accurately and quickly.
This study uses a special ultrasound method (speckle tracking echocardiography) to measure heart function in newborns, including those born early, at term, or with certain health conditions like lung problems or lack of oxygen at birth.
This study is testing a new electronic stethoscope (called Keikku) to see if it works well and is safe for checking heart murmurs in children and adults who are not in an emergency situation. If it works, it could give doctors a better tool for evaluating heart sounds.
