About this study

The SHERPAM project is part of a scientific and technological context which aim is to record, transmit, analyse the physiological parameters of a patient, as well as to record the feedback to the patient and health professional to suggest the best individualised attitude. The questions of SHERPAM are generic. However, two specific applications will be addressed, in which the partners have already acquired some expertise: the recognition and quantification of physical activity with energy expenditure estimation, and the assessment of walking ability in patients with obliterative vascular disease in the lower limbs. Another application concerns the monitoring of the practice of physical activity and some biological signs in subjects with cardiovascular risk and in cardiac patients (arrhythmogenic diseases). Despite various clinical contexts and health goals, a common approach will be developed.

Read the detailed description

To assess the SHERPAM Device (DS) by the continuous acquisition and transmission of data (accelerations, rotations, alterations in thoracic volume, heart rate, electrocardiogram) in a real life physical activity practice (subjects in their living environment and during their usual physical practices) using the DS's real-time communication tools, automatic data processing, and the DS's ability to produce information.

What participants receive

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

  • sensorsDevice

    Acquisition and transmission of exploitable recordings in the public targeted by the DS, that is to say which allow to draw clinical information in relation to the objectives of the DS (detection of the cardiac rhythm): data without artefact (saturation), in a good signal to noise ratio.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing sensors in people with Physical Activity, run by Rennes University Hospital at 1 site in France.

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 8 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 24 May 2023. 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 France. 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?

asses the continuous acquisition of data by sensors (time frame: every day (during 3 weeks)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03673189, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 24 May 2023.
