Study Summary

This research is a clinical evaluation of the Skiin chest band, a smart garment with embedded electronic textile (e-textile) electrodes, to record body surface electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. Developed by Myant Textile Computing Inc., the Skiin chest band (i.e. as part of the Skiin Underwear family of garments) is a component of the Myant Health Platform (MHP). The MHP also consists of: (a) a mobile phone application (Skiin Connected Life Application; SCLA), and (b) the Myant Virtual Clinic Portal (MVCP). In this study, participants will wear the Skiin chest band to collect their ECG for a period of 14 days. Participants will also be provided with a smartphone that is pre-loaded with the SCLA to record any symptoms (e.g. palpitations, shortness of breath, fatigue, light- headedness, fainting, etc.) they may experience over the 14 day ECG monitoring period. The data collected in this study will be used to develop new algorithms and patient monitoring tools to detect and predict cardiovascular health problems.
