About this study

Official title: The Effects of Sex, Body Mass Index, Day-to-Day Subject Variability and Variability of a Single Device When Volume-Averaged Thoracic Bioconductance is Measured With the ProLung Test

Assess the repeatability of the ProLung Test

Read the detailed description

This repeatability study of the ProLung Test enrolled sixty subjects, 30 male and 30 female, half of each sex with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or more, and half with a BMI of 28 or less. Each subject was scanned twice on Day One and twice on Day Two. All scans were done by the same operator on the same device. Fifty-nine subjects produced evaluable data. Four models (algorithms) were tested.

What is being measured

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

  1. Quantify EPN Scanner variability in transcutaneous volume-averaged thoracic bio-conductance when measured twice on the same subjects by the same operator on a single same day using the same EPN Scanner

    The null hypothesis is that same-day variability has no effect on scan results (i.e. when scanned twice on the same day).

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Quantify day-to-day within-subject variability when the same operator uses the same EPN Scanner on the same subjects to measure transcutaneous volume-averaged thoracic bio-conductance on two different days within one week.

    The null hypothesis is that day-to-day variability has no effect on scan results (i.e. when scanned twice on separate days).

    Measured: 1 week

  3. Effects of BMI and Sex on transcutaneous volume-averaged thoracic bio-conductance

    The null hypothesis is that BMI has no effect on scan results. The null hypothesis is that sex has no effect on scan results.

    Measured: 1 week

  4. Number of participants with device-related adverse events from thoracic bio-conductance measurement.

    time to complete scan.

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy Volunteers, run by Fresh Medical Laboratories.

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 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 20 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Quantify EPN Scanner variability in transcutaneous volume-averaged thoracic bio-conductance when measured twice on the same subjects by the same operator on a single same day using the same EPN Scanner (time frame: 1 day). The study lists 4 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 20 Jun 2019.
