A Study to Evaluate Smart Clothing for the Detection of Cardiac Electrical Activity and Arrhythmias

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to examine the fidelity of the electrical signal produced from non-adhesive textile electrodes in a chestband based form factor, to compare signals obtained between the chestband based form factor and the clinical 12 lead ECG recording done on the same day, and to assess the performance of an atrial fibrillation detection algorithm on the signals obtained pre-cardioversion (in atrial fibrillation) and post-cardioversion (in sinus rhythm) from the novel smart-clothing form factor and the routine 12-lead ECG.
