About this study

Official title: Pilot Study of the Quanttus Device for Monitoring of Patients With Congestive Heart Failure

The present study proposes to utilize a novel, wearable device, QI Device, which has multiple sensors embedded in a "wrist-watch" in order to explore its monitoring capabilities in individuals with congestive heart failure.

Read the detailed description

The QI Device is a self-contained, reusable, rechargeable, battery-powered, wrist-watch that simultaneously tracks and records a number of physiological health related parameters such as heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, temperature, and motion/position. One advantage of this device over current home diagnostic systems is the capability for longitudinal monitoring.

What is being measured

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

  1. To capture continuous vital signs via a wrist-based wearable physiologic monitor among patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) in 2 phases

    Phase 1: Will include hospitalized patients admitted to the hospital with a clinical diagnosis of ADHF. Phase 2: Will include patients being discharged from the hospital with a primary clinical diagnosis of ADHF and will be monitored for up to 30 days following hospitalization.

    Measured: ~7to 30 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To explore the development of predictive algorithms to allow for the early identification of patients at risk of acute decompensation and/or HF hospitalization.

    Measured: ~40 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure, run by Scripps Translational Science Institute at 1 site in United States.

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 13 inclusion and 8 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 May 2016. 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 States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To capture continuous vital signs via a wrist-based wearable physiologic monitor among patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) in 2 phases (time frame: ~7to 30 days). 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 5 May 2016.
