AI and Finger-Prick test could spot hidden heart failure in pacemaker patients

NCT ID NCT07372651

Summary

This study looks at better ways to detect heart failure in people with pacemakers. About 1 in 3 pacemaker patients may have undiagnosed heart failure, but current tests are expensive and time-consuming. Researchers will test if a handheld ultrasound guided by artificial intelligence, or a simple finger-prick blood test, can accurately spot heart problems. The goal is to make screening faster, cheaper, and easier for the 150 adult participants.
