NCT ID NCT07757256
First seen Aug 11, 2026 · Last updated Aug 12, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether wearing a smartwatch can lower stress levels in nursing students during their clinical training with older adults. Half the students will wear smartwatches that track heart rate and steps, while the other half receive standard training. Stress will be measured using a questionnaire and heart rate data to see if the wearable helps students become more aware of and manage their stress.
