Learning to recognize heart rhythms for new ICU nurses
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a teaching method that uses real-life cases to help new nurses in intensive care units learn how to identify heart rhythm problems. It might improve their skills in reading heart monitors, which can be important for patient safety.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a nurse who graduated less than one year ago.
- You currently work in a coronary intensive care unit or a cardiovascular surgery intensive care unit.
- You are willing to take part voluntarily.
- You have not attended a formal training program on heart rhythms or ECGs before.

This study tests a computer program that learns to spot irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias) from standard heart tests. If it works, it could help doctors find and treat these problems faster and more accurately.
This study follows people who are in the hospital for any type of irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia). It aims to learn more about these conditions and may help improve future care.
This study tests whether virtual (online) lessons can help cardiology nurses read ECGs (heart rhythm tests) better. It is designed specifically for nurses who treat heart patients, not for doctors.
This study looks at people who have ventricular arrhythmias (a type of abnormal heart rhythm) and are in the intensive care unit. It aims to learn more about these rhythms to improve treatment.
This trial looks at people who develop a new irregular heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation while in the intensive care unit (ICU). It tests an approach to help with that condition after critical illness, aiming to improve outcomes for those affected.
This study tests an artificial intelligence (computer) tool that looks at your ECG (heart tracing) to help detect abnormal heart electrical patterns and the risk of dangerous rhythm problems. You may be helping clinicians screen for rhythm risk using ECG data.
