About this study

Official title: Clinical Testing on Newly Developed Monitoring Technology (The Cortrium C3 Device) for Continuous Measurements of ECG, Respiratory Rate, Body Surface Temperature and Accelerometer Data for Patients With Cancer

Clinical data validation of the C3 device as a Vital Sign Monitoring System for patients under cancer treatment.

Read the detailed description

Cortrium has developed the C3 device. The C3 device contains sensors that monitors Electrocardiogram (ECG), Respiratory rate (breathes per minute), and Body surface temperature. Also, the C3 device contains an accelerometer for registration of the body posture.

The following thesis will be tested:

Thesis 1) Pulse: The C3 device produces clinically validated pulse data. Thesis 2) Respiratory rate: The C3 device produces clinically validated respiratory rate data (breaths per minute). Thesis 3) Infection: With no justified statistical significant correlation between skin and body temperature, the study is exploring how to prevent aggravated or lethal outcomes of cancer treatment, e.g. chemotherapy, by using vital signs measurements combined with accelerometer data to detect infection levels. Thesis 4) The qualitative study: The study will report the advantages and disadvantages regarding new technological solutions, and the change in workflow and healthcare provision as it is experienced by the healthcare personnel and the patients. The data validation studies (thesis 1-3) will be tested in comparison with golden standard measurements methods and/or data validated medical equipment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cancer, run by Cortrium at 1 site in Germany.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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 9 Dec 2019. 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 Germany. 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?

Pulse rate (time frame: May 2017-March 2018). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 9 Dec 2019.
