Summary

This study looks at whether wearing a heart monitor for 7 days can help find hidden atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) in people with high NT-proBNP levels. About 4,000 adults aged 40 and older will be split into two groups: one gets the monitor, the other does not. The goal is to see if early detection and treatment can lower the chance of stroke or heart-related death over 6 years.
