Summary

This study tests a small, handheld ECG device that records heart activity when held against the chest and sends the data via smartphone to a doctor. Researchers will enroll 594 adults with known or suspected heart conditions to see if the new device is as good as the standard 10-wire ECG. The goal is to make heart checks faster, easier, and more accessible without the need for sticky pads or wires.
