About this study

Official title: Comparison of Remote Camera Measures of Lung Function Compared to Standard Spirometry

Comparison of standard spirometry to non invasive remote lung function measures of chest wall movement using depth camera technology.

Read the detailed description

This study plans to test a new non invasive way of measuring lung function and compare it to the current method of blowing into a spirometer.

Spirometry is an essential investigation for diagnosis and assessment of severity in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and other respiratory conditions, it is used in every respiratory unit and across primary care. It requires subjects to blow into a tube which measures volume and flow of expired air. It involves specialist equipment and training to perform and interpret. Not all patients are capable of performing spirometry, in particular children, frail, cognitively impaired and those experiencing a flare or exacerbation of symptoms. Remote lung function assessment technology has the potential to enable assessment of lung function in these groups of patients. In the future it is also hoped that it could be used to improve respiratory disease monitoring outside the healthcare environment such as in the patients home.

This new method uses the latest infra-red depth detection cameras to measure chest wall movement. (N.B this does not capture identifiable images). We would like to record participants chest wall movements while blowing into the spirometer.

Being tested
Kinnect 3 camera

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Kinnect 3 cameraDevice

    comparison of Kinnect 3 measures of chest wall movement during standard spirometry

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Correlation between change in chest wall depth and Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1)

    Change in lung volume over time (litre per minute)

    Measured: participants will be followed up for the duration of outpatient visit - on average 3 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Lung Disease, run by North Bristol NHS Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Dec 2014. 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 United Kingdom. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact James W Dodd, MB CHB PhD (01174147925, james.dodd@bris.ac.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correlation between change in chest wall depth and Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) (time frame: participants will be followed up for the duration of outpatient visit - on average 3 hours). 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 31 Dec 2014.
