Tiny heart chip aims to stop silent strokes
NCT ID NCT04818645
Summary
This study is testing whether a small, implanted heart monitor can find hidden, irregular heartbeats (atrial fibrillation) in people with heart failure. Finding these rhythm problems early could allow doctors to start treatments like blood thinners to prevent strokes and hospitalizations. The study compares the monitor to standard check-ups in about 477 high-risk patients.
