Photoplethysmography (PPG) to Predict Ejection Fraction and Other Echographic Data in the General Population
Status: Recruiting
Location: See all (3) locations...
Intervention Type: Diagnostic test
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY
The investigators are aiming to investigate the association between ejection fraction (EF) determined by echocardiography and signals obtained from Photoplethysmography (PPG) in the general population. The investigators are also aiming to investigate the association between blood pressure and signals obtained from PPG in the general population. Finally, the investigators are also aiming to investigate the association between signals obtained from PPG in the general population to cardioechographic findings such as, valvular heart disease, structural heart diseases, cardiomyopathies, pericardial disease etc.
