Heart surgery recovery gets a wireless watchdog

NCT ID NCT07736066

First seen Jul 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This trial tests whether a wearable ECG patch can help people recover better after heart surgery. Participants wear the MEMO Patch, which continuously records heart signals and activity, while completing a cardiac rehabilitation program that starts in the hospital and continues at home. Researchers will measure changes in exercise capacity, muscle strength, and quality of life to see if remote monitoring improves outcomes.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
a wearable adhesive ECG monitoring device called MEMO Patch, plus a Phase I cardiac rehabilitation program
What this could lead to
If it works, this could make cardiac rehabilitation safer and more effective by allowing doctors to monitor patients remotely after heart surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-arm study with only 22 participants, so results may not apply to all heart surgery patients. The device may cause skin irritation or discomfort.
