This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing how well a new wearable heart monitor called HeartWatch performs compared to the standard Holter monitor that doctors typically use. Both devices will be worn at the same time so researchers can compare how accurately each one detects irregular heartbeats and which one patients prefer to use.
Doctors need reliable ways to detect irregular heartbeats, but newer monitoring devices need to be tested to see if they work as well as the standard equipment and if they might be easier or more comfortable for patients to wear.

You will wear both the standard Holter monitor and the new HeartWatch device on your left arm at the same time for the monitoring period. The researchers will collect signals from both devices to compare how well they detect your heart rhythm and will ask you about which device you found easier to use and whether you experienced any problems with either one.
