AI stethoscope could spot heart valve trouble in minutes
NCT ID NCT07568795
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a portable electronic stethoscope, combined with machine learning, can accurately detect valvular heart disease. About 125 people with and without the condition will use the device and also receive standard heart tests. Researchers will compare the device's diagnosis to doctors' assessments to see if it works well enough for wider use.
