Smartphone heart test for kids could replace wires
NCT ID NCT07148934
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests if a smartphone app and a special bed mat can detect a type of fast heartbeat (supraventricular tachycardia) in children aged 0-10. Researchers will compare these methods to the standard hospital heart monitor. If successful, it could make diagnosis easier and less invasive for young patients.
