Could a simple patch replace invasive heart testing?
NCT ID NCT06870591
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a new, non-invasive device called the Cardiac Performance System (CPS) that uses sensors on the skin to measure heart function. Researchers will compare its readings to those from standard invasive right heart catheterization in 1000 adults. If accurate, the CPS could offer a safer, simpler way to assess heart health.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Cardiac Performance System (CPS) device
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this device could replace invasive heart catheterization with a simple, non-invasive test for measuring heart function.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The device may not prove accurate enough to replace current methods, and results may not apply to all patients.
