Wearable ultrasound patch to monitor heart patients in the ICU
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a new wearable ultrasound device that can monitor the heart continuously in the ICU. It may help doctors spot heart problems earlier after surgery, which could improve recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be an adult or a child currently in the intensive care unit (ICU) or cardiac care unit (CCU) at Fuwai Hospital.
- You must have a heart condition that needed surgery or a procedure, such as heart valve repair, coronary artery bypass, or fixing a heart defect (for children).
- The chest area must be free of severe infection or an open wound that would prevent placing a small ultrasound sensor on the skin.
- You and your family must agree to take part in the study.

This study tests whether wearing a small monitor during your hospital stay helps doctors catch problems earlier than standard care alone. If you are in the hospital for heart or blood vessel issues, this device could help your care team keep a closer eye on you.
This study tests whether using a small ultrasound device at the patient's bedside (point-of-care ultrasound) can help doctors better manage fluid buildup in people with chronic heart failure. The goal is to see if this extra imaging helps guide treatment and improve outcomes.
This study tests an AI-powered wearable patch (the COR ECG) to see if it can better track heart and lung health. It may help doctors find problems earlier without needing bulky equipment.
This trial tests a wearable ultrasound sensor that can be stuck to the skin to monitor your heart, leg blood clots, or vital signs in the ICU. It may replace bulky machines and let doctors see your condition more easily and continuously.
This study tests a device called UltraTrac that checks your heart and lung health without needles or invasive procedures. It may help doctors better monitor conditions like heart failure or asthma in the future.
This trial tests a new, soft, wearable monitor that tracks your heart and body signs without wires or sticky pads. It aims to see if this device can help doctors diagnose and treat heart disease more comfortably.
