First seen Mar 09, 2026 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 13 times
Summary
This study looks at whether keeping low- and intermediate-risk fainting patients in the hospital for 24 hours with a heart monitor is better than sending them home right away. About 640 adults will be randomly assigned to either stay or go home. The goal is to see if the longer monitoring catches more heart rhythm problems that could be dangerous.

What could go wrong
This is an early-stage trial with 640 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The benefit of extra monitoring might be small and not worth the hospital stay.
