First seen Mar 31, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study is testing whether a special watch that shines light on the skin (called PPG) can predict how well the heart pumps blood and detect heart valve or muscle diseases. About 500 adults getting a heart ultrasound will wear the watch to collect data. Researchers will use artificial intelligence to see if the watch signals can replace or reduce the need for more complex heart tests.
