First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 20, 2026 · Updated 26 times
Summary
This study tested whether wearing a heart monitor for 8 days or more finds more cases of atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat that raises stroke risk) than wearing it for just 1 day. About 1000 adults aged 75 or older (or with other stroke risk factors) wore a small patch called MEMO Patch PLUS. The goal is to see if longer monitoring helps doctors start blood-thinning medicine sooner to prevent strokes.
