Patch Heart Monitor Screening for Irregular Heartbeat in Older Adults
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a small adhesive heart-monitoring patch can detect atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) in people 60 and older who have never been diagnosed with it. Finding atrial fibrillation early may help prevent serious complications like stroke.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 60 years old or older
- You have never been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat)
- You are willing to wear a small adhesive patch on your chest continuously to monitor your heart rhythm
- You do not have severe heart disease or a serious acute illness
- You can understand the study purpose and provide written consent to participate
- You are able to attend follow-up assessments and cooperate with the study team

This study tests whether using a small, stick-on patch (Zio Patch) to check for a hidden, irregular heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation can help improve health outcomes in older adults at higher risk for stroke.
This study is testing a new wearable device that tracks your heart's electrical activity. It is designed to see if it works as well as a standard ECG machine.
This study looks at early changes in the heart related to atrial fibrillation (AF) using health data and biomarkers. It aims to find better ways to predict or understand AF, especially around procedures like ablation or cardioversion.
This study tests if a wearable ECG device can help detect atrial fibrillation (AF), an irregular heartbeat that can raise stroke risk, in people at higher risk for stroke. You would wear the device for a while to see if it picks up signs of AF that need treatment.
This trial uses a monitoring device to check for a common but often overlooked irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) after non-cardiac surgery. The goal is to detect and treat it early to prevent complications like stroke.
This study uses an AI tool to look at your ECG (a simple heart test) to help find early signs of atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) or structural heart disease (changes in heart structure). It aims to see if the AI can help doctors catch these conditions sooner, even in people who don't yet have symptoms.
