MyHeartSentinel wearable system for remote heart monitoring

Official title: EXPLORATORY STUDY OF THE MYHEARTSENTINEL SYSTEM, A CARDIAMETRICS MEDICAL DEVICE - ANALYSIS OF CARDIAC ELECTROPHYSIOLOGICAL AND MECHANICAL SIGNALS DURING A DECOMPENSATION/RECOMPENSATION EPISODE IN PATIENTS WITH HEART FAILURE IN THE HOSPITAL AND UPON DISCHARGE HOME

Run by University Hospital, Caen · NCT07345533 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This project will test whether wearing the MyHeartSentinel cutaneous device can record electrical and mechanical heart signals in adults hospitalized with decompensated chronic heart failure to help track changes in their condition.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults aged 18–90 with known chronic heart failure who are hospitalized for hemodynamic assessment or for congestive decompensation (with BNP > 400 µg/ml or NT‑proBNP > 1600 µg/ml) are the intended participants.

Probably not a fit

Patients with decompensation due to active infection requiring antibiotics, recent intravenous inotrope use, ventricular arrhythmias or permanent atrial fibrillation, acute ST‑elevation coronary syndromes, certain structural heart conditions awaiting intervention, or who are pregnant or breastfeeding are excluded and unlikely to benefit from participation.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

The study recruits adults hospitalized for hemodynamic assessment or for congestive decompensation of known chronic heart failure and applies the MyHeartSentinel external cutaneous device to collect continuous electrophysiological and mechanical cardiac signals. Investigators will build a database of those signals and correlate them with biological markers, hemodynamic data, and the patient's clinical status. The goal is to identify signal patterns that change with worsening or improving heart failure and to inform development of automated remote monitoring tools. Data collection occurs at Caen University Hospital using non-invasive wearable sensors during the hospital stay.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could enable earlier detection of worsening heart failure and support automated remote monitoring to reduce urgent hospital visits.

How similar studies have gone: Related remote-monitoring approaches, such as implantable pressure monitors and some wearable sensors, have shown promise for detecting worsening heart failure, but combining external electrophysiological and mechanical signal monitoring with automated detection is relatively novel and less proven.

  * Hospitalized for hemodynamic assessment
  * Hospitalized in a cardiology unit (ICU or telemetry unit) for congestive decompensation of known heart failure defined by \[8\] minimal dyspnea at rest or during exercise AND an elevation of BNP \> 400 µg/ml or NT-proBNP \> 1600 µg/ml

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patient hospitalized for decompensated heart failure due to an infectious cause requiring antibiotic treatment
* Patient requiring intravenous inotropes within the last 24 hours
