Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 90 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study population consists of healthy adult volunteers without known cardiovascular disease. All participants undergo both standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) recording and torso-derived 6-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) recording during a single study session. Participants are screened prior to inclusion to ensure the absence of baseline arrhythmia, ischemia, conduction delay, or structural heart disease.

Who may be able to join

  • Age between 18 and 65 years
  • No known cardiovascular disease
  • No arrhythmia, conduction disorder, or ischemic electrocardiogram (ECG) changes at baseline
  • Willingness to participate and ability to provide written informed consent

Who cannot join

  • Known cardiac disease, including coronary artery disease (CAD), arrhythmia, heart failure, or valvular heart disease
  • Pacemaker rhythm or baseline abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG) findings
  • Thoracic deformity or prior thoracic surgery that prevents appropriate electrode placement
  • Unwillingness to participate or inability to provide informed consent

About this study

Official title: Comparison of 6-Lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) Device Data With Standard 12-Lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) Data in Individuals With Different Anthropometric Characteristics

This study aims to compare electrocardiographic interval measurements obtained from a torso-placed six-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) device (torso-derived ECG; T-ECG) with those obtained from a standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) in healthy adult volunteers. The torso-derived device synthesizes limb-lead signals using electrodes positioned on the thorax, potentially allowing for faster and more practical ECG acquisition in emergency department settings, operating rooms, and prehospital environments.

A total of 24 participants undergo both standard 12-lead ECG recording and torso-derived 6-lead ECG recording during the same study session. Heart rate (HR), PR interval, QRS duration, QT interval, and corrected QT (QTc) values are analyzed using Bland-Altman agreement analysis and correlation testing. The study also evaluates whether anthropometric characteristics-including body mass index (BMI)-influence the compatibility and agreement between the two measurement systems.

Read the detailed description

This observational, single-center clinical study evaluates the agreement between a torso-based derived six-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) system and a standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) in healthy adult volunteers. The study is conducted at Haydarpasa Numune Training and Research Hospital following ethics committee approval (Approval No: 2023/193). Volunteers aged 18 to 65 years without known cardiac disease are enrolled.

Each participant undergoes one standard 12-lead ECG recording followed by a torso-based six-lead ECG recording under identical resting conditions. Electrocardiographic measurements include heart rate (HR), RR interval, PR interval, QRS duration, QT interval, and corrected QT (QTc). Anthropometric characteristics-body weight, height, and body mass index (BMI)-are collected to assess whether body composition influences measurement consistency between the two systems.

Primary analysis includes Bland-Altman agreement statistics and correlation testing between ECG modalities. No drug administration, invasive procedure, randomization, or therapeutic intervention is applied. The study involves minimal risk and is limited to non-invasive surface ECG acquisition.

The expected clinical significance is that, if the torso-based ECG demonstrates measurement compatibility with the standard 12-lead ECG, simplified electrode placement may enable faster ECG acquisition in emergency departments, prehospital evaluations, and clinical scenarios in which limb lead placement is impractical.

Summary results may be shared in publication form, but raw individual-level data will not be publicly available.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy Volunteer, run by Haydarpasa Numune Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PR Interval Agreement Between Torso-Derived and Standard 12-Lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) (time frame: Single-session baseline ECG recording.). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Dec 2025.
