New heart patch could catch hidden stroke triggers better than old holter
NCT ID NCT05082467
First seen Apr 26, 2026 · Last updated Apr 26, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a water-resistant, wireless ECG patch worn for 7 days can find more cases of hidden atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat that raises stroke risk) than the usual 24-hour Holter monitor. About 320 adults who recently had a stroke or mini-stroke of unknown cause will wear both devices. The goal is to see which method catches more heart rhythm problems, helping doctors decide on treatments to prevent future strokes.
