Sticky patch could replace wires for hospital heart monitoring
NCT ID NCT07260721
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a small, sticky patch that records heart rhythms in hospitalized patients who need continuous monitoring. The patch sends data to a central system for real-time alerts and later review. Researchers want to see if it helps doctors make faster decisions about treatments like blood thinners or heart procedures. About 100 adults will wear the patch for up to 8 days.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- MEMO-Cue single-lead ECG patch telemetry system
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that a simple, wearable patch is as good as or better than standard telemetry for catching heart rhythm problems in the hospital, potentially leading to faster treatment.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early study (100 people) at one hospital, without a comparison group. The patch may miss some arrhythmias or cause skin irritation, and results may not apply to all patients.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Adults aged 19 years or older who provide written informed consent for participation. * Patients requiring in-hospital telemetry electrocardiogram monitoring during hospitalization. Exclusion Criteria: * Known hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to adhesives or hydrogel. * Presence of skin wounds at the intended application site of the investigational device. * Implanted cardiac electronic devices such as pacemakers, ICDs, or other CIEDs * Current or past history of skin cancer, rash, dermatologic disorders, keloid formation, or skin injury. * Any condition judged by the investigator to increase risk or make participation inappropriate. * Cognitive impairment that precludes understanding of study information or voluntary consent.
