Week-Long heart patch could Out-Sleuth standard 24-Hour monitor for palpitations
NCT ID NCT07728552
First seen Jul 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tests whether a 7-day adhesive ECG patch (MEMO Patch) can detect more heart rhythm abnormalities than a conventional 24-hour Holter monitor in adults who experience palpitations or dizziness. Participants wear both devices at the same time for the first day, then continue wearing only the patch for six more days. The goal is to see if the longer monitoring period improves detection of arrhythmias like atrial fibrillation or pauses in heart rhythm, while also checking for skin reactions and user satisfaction.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- a 7-day adhesive ECG monitoring patch (MEMO Patch)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a more convenient and longer-lasting way to catch intermittent heart rhythm problems that a standard 24-hour monitor might miss.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small exploratory study, so results may not apply to everyone. The patch may cause skin irritation or be less comfortable over a full week.
This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
