NCT ID NCT07358481
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study brings together 10 experts in cardiology, personalized medicine, and digital health to create recommendations for using wearable devices and polygenic risk scores in heart disease prevention. Through online surveys, they will identify which genomic, digital, and clinical steps are needed to integrate these tools into routine care. The goal is to produce practical guidelines that could help doctors better predict and prevent cardiovascular disease.
