Summary

This observational study will test whether an artificial intelligence algorithm can accurately detect heart sounds using data from a wearable ECG patch in 50 people with heart failure. Participants will wear the patch and have their heart sounds recorded with a digital stethoscope for comparison. The goal is to develop a simple, non-invasive tool that could help monitor heart failure more effectively.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a simple, wearable device that helps doctors monitor heart failure patients more easily and catch problems earlier.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage observational study, not a treatment trial. The AI algorithm may not work as well in real-world settings or in different patient groups.
