Testing a simpler 4-patch ECG vs standard 10-patch ECG
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is testing a new, simpler ECG device (with only 4 sticky patches) against the standard 10-patch ECG. It's for people with heart conditions who are either in the hospital or visiting a cardiologist, and aims to see if the new device is easier to use and still gives a clear reading.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial is testing a new handheld ECG device to see if it works well for patients with known heart conditions or symptoms that might be heart-related. If you qualify, using this simple device could help monitor your heart health more easily.
This trial is testing a new algorithm that uses a simple, one-lead ECG (heart tracing) to measure how fast electrical signals travel through the heart. Researchers want to see if the algorithm works well in people whose heart intervals are slightly outside the normal range, which may help doctors better monitor heart conditions.
This study checks whether a wearable ECG patch can correctly record heart electrical signals and help identify abnormal rhythms (arrhythmias) in children. If it works well, it could make future heart rhythm monitoring more accurate for pediatric patients who need regular Holter (long ECG) monitoring.
This study is testing a small, wireless patch that records your heart's electrical activity (a single-lead ECG) while you are in the hospital. The goal is to see if this patch works as well as the standard wired telemetry system used to monitor heart patients.
This study tests whether a simple, single-lead ECG (like a heart rhythm strip) can help find heart problems or related conditions. It aims to see if this quick, easy test can be a useful screening tool.
This study tests how easy it is to use a new device that records your heart's electrical activity through a simple patch on your chest. You will need to use a smartphone app with the patch.
