NCT ID NCT07619196

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether an Apple Watch, combined with artificial intelligence, can detect elevated pressures inside the heart. Researchers compared the watch's readings to standard echocardiograms in 200 patients. The goal was to see if this wearable device could offer a simpler way to screen for heart problems.
