Longer heart monitoring catches more hidden irregularities in Stroke-Prone patients

NCT ID NCT05355948

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 25 times

Summary

This study tested whether wearing a heart monitor for 8 days or more finds more cases of atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat that raises stroke risk) than wearing it for just 1 day. About 1,000 adults aged 75 or older, or with other stroke risk factors, wore the MEMO Patch PLUS device. The goal is to see if longer monitoring helps doctors detect and treat this condition earlier, potentially preventing strokes.
