Overview
Tab Title Description
Study type
InterventionalDescribes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
- Observational study — observes people and measures outcomes without affecting results.
- Interventional study (clinical trial) — studies new tests, treatments, drugs, surgical procedures or devices.
- Medical records research — uses historical information collected from medical records of large groups of people to study how diseases progress and which treatments and surgeries work best.

About this study
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the detection performance and safety of an investigational Wearable Cardioverter defibrillator (WCD).
Participation eligibility
Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Males or females, age ≥ 18 years.
- Patients with an active Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD).
- Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) ≤ 40%, measured within the past year (12 months).
- Able and willing to provide written informed consent before undergoing any study-related procedures.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Any condition that by the judgement of the physician investigator precludes the subject’s ability to comply with the study requirements.
- Any known skin allergy or sensitivity to the study garment materials that will be next to the skin.
- Any breached or compromised skin on the upper torso that would be exacerbated by wearing the study garment.
- Work with or are frequently around equipment that produces high electromagnetic fields, for example magnetic resonance imaging devices, power supply facilities, or welding equipment.
- Any planned surgical or medical procedures during the participation period.
- Any planned air travel during the participation period.
- Cognitive and/or physical limitations that would prevent the subject from interacting with the device as intended.
- Pregnancy.
- Use of mechanical circulatory support, for example Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) or Total Artificial Heart.
- Implanted Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillator (CRT-D).
- Pacing pulse width > 1ms.
- Simultaneous plan/prescription for Holter monitor, mobile cardiac outpatient telemetry (MCOT), Event Recorder, or in-hospital telemetry.
- Use of any electronic medical device that is worn on or near the body requires Sponsor approval, other than continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), continuous blood glucose monitor, or pulse oximeter oxygen saturation (SpO2) monitor.
