Detailed Description
Assess the effect of the following on the accuracy of the recorded ECG compared to a gold standard ECG:
-
Posture or position of the patient
-
Movement
-
Amount of hair on the ECG site
-
Skin condition (tone/dryness) Ability to detect a paced rhythm accurately A qualitative assessment of ECG devices, including the amount of artefact in the signal and ease of use of the device

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Accuracy of smartphone or wearable ECG devices compared to gold standard ECG devices [2 hours]
To compare the accuracy of novel smartphone or wearable ECG devices to a gold standard ECG in patients with normal and abnormal ECGs.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Assessing the effects on the ECG of: - Posture or position of the patient [2 hours]
Assessment of changes to the ECG signal due to posture or position of the patient
- Assessing the effects on the ECG of: • Movement [2 hours]
Assessment of changes to the ECG signal due to movement of the patient
- Assessing the effects on the ECG of: • Amount of hair on the ECG site [12 months]
Assessment of changes to the ECG signal due to amount of hair on the site of ECG electrode positions
- Assessing the effects on the ECG of: • Skin condition (tone/dryness) [12 months]
Assessment of changes to the ECG signal due to different skin conditions on the site of ECG electrode positions
- Ability to detect a paced rhythm accurately. [2 hours]
Assessment of ability of ECG device to detect paced ECG complexes or pacing spikes
- A qualitative assessment of ECG devices, including the amount of artefact in the signal and ease of use of the device. [12 months]
