Clinical Trial: Prediction of Atrial Fibrillation Using Polygenic Risk Score

U.S., June 12 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07641582) titled 'Prediction of Atrial Fibrillation Using Polygenic Risk Score' on June 06.

Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a genetic risk score can help identify undiagnosed atrial fibrillation (AF) in adults who may have it. AF is an irregular heartbeat that raises the risk of stroke if not treated early.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Can a polygenic risk score (PRS) - a score based on a person's genes - identify who is more likely to have AF? Does combining PRS with a person's medical history predict AF better than using medical history alone?

Participants will:

Wear a continuous ECG patch for 7 d...
