Using Wearable Devices to Monitor Heart Health
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study asks heart failure patients to wear a fitness tracker (like Fitbit or Apple Watch) and use a smartphone app called HeartBit to share health data with researchers. The goal is to learn whether tracking daily activity, heart rate, and sleep can help catch heart problems early or improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old
- You have been diagnosed with heart failure, or your doctor says you are at risk of developing it
- You own a Fitbit, Apple Watch, or similar wearable device—or are willing to buy one
- You can download and use the HeartBit app on your smartphone
- You are able to understand and follow the study instructions on your own
