About the study

This is a phase 0, non-interventional, longitudinal, electronic data capture (EDC) study to facilitate the HEARTBEAT Study project has set out to explore the potential use of smartwatches in collecting and analyzing biometric data to improve the detection, identification, and understanding of cardiovascular diseases and related conditions by SAMSUNG and Tulane. The study will include up to ten thousand adult subjects tasked with wearing a smartwatch to collect digital biomarker data over a 1 year period. Concurrent to smartwatch data collection, subjects will be instructed to complete questionnaires via the Huma Decentralized Clinical Trials (HUMADCT) platform. There are no investigational drugs or interventions administered as part of this study.
