Smartphone app to predict heart attack and stroke risk
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a smartphone app can predict your real-time risk of a heart attack or stroke. You wear a smartwatch for 18 months, and the app uses your health data to help you and your doctor manage your heart health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 40 to 79 years old.
- You are willing to wear a smartwatch all the time for 18 months and are comfortable using technology.
- You have known artery narrowing in your heart (at least 20% blockage but less than 70% in most arteries, or 20% to 50% in the left main artery) OR a coronary calcium score of 100 or higher OR a high 10-year risk (20% or more) of heart attack or stroke OR a moderate 10-year risk (7.5% to less than 20%) plus two or more risk-enhancing factors like family history, diabetes, or certain chronic conditions.
- You do not have a low 10-year risk (less than 7.5%), cognitive impairment, metastatic cancer, terminal illness, severe mental illness, or other conditions that would prevent participation.
- You are not pregnant, and if you could become pregnant, you are using birth control.
