What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

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.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Patient GroupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
All patients undergoing an echocardiogram at Tulane Medical Center may be asked to participate in the study. Doctors, including PI and co-PI, will identify eligible patients from their clinic using their clinical knowledge and expertise and the patients' medical history and records. They will provide patients with information regarding the study and if interested, patients will be consented prior to their scheduled echocardiogram.
