First seen Apr 08, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a simple, 30-second ECG test using a handheld device can find hidden atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) in cancer patients aged 65 and older. About 494 participants will be randomly assigned to either get the quick screening or usual care. The goal is to catch AF early so patients can start blood thinners to prevent strokes.
