New Light-Based sensor could replace invasive heart monitoring
NCT ID NCT06649435
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new device called Seerlinq HeartCore that uses light sensors (photoplethysmography) to measure heart pressure without needles or catheters. Researchers enrolled 131 adults with heart failure to see if the device could accurately detect elevated filling pressure in the heart. If it works, this could allow doctors to monitor patients remotely and adjust treatments more easily.
