Summary
This trial tests if the Apple Watch ECG is accurate in measuring heart rate in kids, and if it can detect undiagnosed heart conditions.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and young adults aged 6 to 21 who are undergoing monitoring for heart rhythm problems. Participants must be able to wear an Apple Watch safely and use its features, including the trigger buttons.
What is being tested?
The study aims to test how accurately the Apple Watch can record ECG tracings and heart rate in kids. It also looks at whether using the watch longer term catches any arrhythmias that shorter clinical tests might miss.
What are the potential side effects?
Wearing an Apple Watch is generally safe but may include discomfort from wearing the device continuously or skin irritation. The study does not involve medication, so drug-related side effects are not expected.
