About this study
Official title: The Effectiveness of the Jamboxx Respiratory Therapy Device in Treatment of Patients With Decreased Respiratory Function. Study 3: Post-Op Inpatients for Short Term Evaluation of Atelectasis
The Effectiveness of the Jamboxx Respiratory Therapy Device in Treatment of Patients with Decreased Respiratory Function is a proposal for investigation of the application of gaming to improving respiratory health. The Jamboxx device (see appendix A for device details) combines gaming with traditional incentive spirometry to provide users with a fun experience to keep them engaged in their respiratory therapy routine. The device allows users to play a series of mini-games that walk them through their routines. The Jamboxx also records airflow and lung parameters with an external mouthpiece attachment to provide users with real time feedback, and helps to assess increases or decreases in relative lung function over time. The Jamboxx has the potential to significantly impact the field of respiratory therapy by being one of the first gaming devices for patient therapy, and the first respiratory therapy gaming device that is accessible to users with limited mobility. Jamboxx provides a fun and engaging, low cost alternative to the traditional therapy techniques used and aims to improve patient compliance.
This study addresses postoperative pulmonary atelectasis that results from diaphragm dysfunction and pain following upper abdominal surgery. This issue is a major cause of morbidity in these patients (Ford et al 1983). Incentive spirometry is used in this setting, but there is conflicting data regarding its effectiveness (Rupp et al 2013). Study 3 will focus on the questions regarding the influence of education and a novel use of a gaming device on prevention of atelectasis. Study 3 will include 3 subgroups of subjects. The first subject group will be enrolled in a nonintrusive observation only studies. Group 1 will explore the effect of technology via a tablet device on standard spirometry usage. Group 2 will look at the combined effect of technology via the tablet device and intensive education on compliance and reduction of post-surgical atelectasis. Finally, Group 3 will explore the effect of gaming technology with intensive educational reinforcement on compliance and reduction of post-surgical atelectasis.
Read the detailed description
Testing Plan: Study participants will be enrolled sequentially in one of three study groups:
- Group 1 - the first 25 patients will be consented to participate by a member of the research team. These study patients will receive a study information/authorization sheet about the study prior to surgery during their pre-operative clinic visit. This subgroup will be provided postoperatively with an incentive spirometer connected to a tablet interface. This tablet device uses a digital interface to mimic the look and function of the standard issue incentive spirometer. Subjects in this group will receive current standard of care with routine surgical and RN encouragement to use the spirometer. The tablet will monitor and record spirometer device utilization. Demographic data (age ( or >89), gender, ethnicity) and body mass index (BMI) will be collected. No patient identifiers will be collected. At 72 hours or at discharge, the devices will be exchanged for standard issue incentive spirometer. Research staff will extract the demographic data described above as well as BMI.
Randomized Study Subgroups:
- Groups 2 and 3 are active study groups. -Patients will be randomized via a random number generator post-operatively to group 2 or 3, stratified by surgery type (laparoscopic or open) . Each subgroup will include a total of 72 randomized participants
Group 2 : These study patients will be consented by members of the research team prior to surgery at their pre-operative clinic visit. The patient will receive RT or RN education preoperatively as to the importance of incentive spirometry in prevention of post-operative respiratory complications. This subgroup will be provided with an incentive spirometer connected to a tablet interface. This tablet device uses a digital interface to mimic the look and function of the standard issue incentive spirometer, and will set a spirometry goal while collecting usage and pulmonary function data. Subjects in this group will also receive daily intensive education from a study team member during the postoperative time up until 72 hours or until discharge. This education will be done to reinforce the standard instruction provided by the hospital staff.
Research staff will collect data on pain, utilization of incentive spirometry, and room air oximetry. The oximetry measurements will be collected after patients have been off of oxygen for between 3.5 to 4 minutes. For patients requiring high levels of supplemental oxygen (pulse oximetry measurement (<90%), oxygen will not be removed for pulse oximetry measurements. The additional education and oximetry measure will be collected by a respiratory therapist three times a day at the preferred times of 0600, 1200 and 1800 post operatively. Patients will remain on study for 72 hours post-surgery, return to the OR, SICU admission or medical prescription of directed chest physiotherapy.
A Chest x-ray will be obtained at 48 hours post-surgery. Demographic data (age ( or >89), gender, ethnicity), pulmonary function data and body mass index (BMI) will be collected. No patient identifiers will be collected. At 72 hours or at discharge, the devices will be exchanged for standard issue incentive spirometer.
Group 3: These study patients will be consented by a member of the research team prior to surgery at their pre-operative clinic visit. The patients will receive RT or RN education preoperatively as to the importance of incentive spirometry in prevention of post-operative respiratory complications. This subgroup will be provided with both intensive education reinforcement and a spirometry tablet device that also includes multiple gaming programs. The games are meant to encourage incentive spirometry and are programmed to progress in accordance with the patient's personal increasing capacity.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Digital Incentive Spirometer and Jamboxx Respiratory Therapy Device in people with Atelectases, Postoperative Pulmonary, run by My Music Machines Inc. 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 1 inclusion and 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Aug 2022. 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 was stopped early (reason given: COVID-19). Results are not available in the source record.
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?
Severity of atelectasis (time frame: 48 hours post-surgery). 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?
