The Apple Heart Study: Transforming clinical trial conduct.
Dr. Ken Mahaffey
October 8

The Apple Heart Study was a pragmatic, virtual study of over 400,000 participants to evaluate the Apple Watch ability to detect irregular heart rhythms. The innovative design and operational success will be discussed and the results presented.
