Trial summary

This study will test the accuracy of an investigational, non-invasive device for measuring heart rate and respiratory rate. The device emits radiowaves that allows it to pick up subtle changes in a person's chest wall, which allows it to calculate the heart rate and respiratory rate. Read more about this study

About this study

This study will test the accuracy of an investigational, non-invasive device for measuring heart rate and respiratory rate. The device emits radiowaves that allows it to pick up subtle changes in a person's chest wall, which allows it to calculate the heart rate and respiratory rate. We propose to study whether the device's measurements are accurate and reproducible in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma. The device undergoing study has been evaluated in healthy volunteers, but its accuracy in vital sign monitoring in patients with respiratory conditions has not yet been established. This study will serve as the foundation for additional work to assess the device's accuracy in measuring a patient's overall "work of breathing" or respiratory effort. Future work will examine the device's accuracy in measuring work of breathing in patients having an exacerbation of their underlying respiratory condition.

The primary aim of this study will be to assess the validity of heart rate and respiratory rate measurements in patients with either COPD or asthma.

Being tested
Investigational Device: Contactless heart rate and respiratory rate monitor, Heart Rate (EKG) Monitor, Respiratory rate Monitor, Pulse Oximetry

What participants receive

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

  • Investigational Device: Contactless heart rate and respiratory rate monitorDevice

    Also called Investigational Device

    Participant will be seated next to the investigational device. The device is contactless, and will measure the patient's heart rate and respiratory rate through use of radio-waves.

  • Heart Rate (EKG) MonitorDiagnostic test

    Participant will undergo 3-lead EKG testing to measure heart rate during testing.

  • Respiratory rate MonitorDiagnostic test

    Participant will have an elastic band around their chest for monitoring respiratory rate during testing.

  • Pulse OximetryDiagnostic test

    Participants will wear a finger pulse oximeter during the testing for monitoring of heart rate, respiratory rate, and pulse oximetry.

Study groups in NCT04003415
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Investigational Device ArmExperimentalOnce consented for the study, participants will undergo testing with the investigational device for a one hour period. Testing will entail the participant wearing an EKG monitor, a respiratory rate monitor, a pulse oximeter, and being positioned next to the investigational device. The investigational device is contactless and captures chest movement of participants which allows it to estimate real time heart rate and respiratory rate. Additional data collected with the EKG monitor, respiratory rate monitor, and the pulse oximeter will be used to validate the vital sign data collected by the investigational device. After data collection is complete, participant involvement will then be over. Participants will have the option to return on a later date for additional testing (up to a maximum of three sessions total), within the six month window of the study. Participants will continue their standard of care therapies for their respiratory condition.

What is being measured

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

  1. Heart Rate

    Heart rate data as compared between the investigational device, a 3-lead EKG, and a finger probe.

    Measured: 30 - 60 minutes

  2. Respiratory rate

    Respiratory rate data as compared between the investigational device, a respiratory rate monitor, and a finger probe.

    Measured: 30 - 60 minutes

Limited Access: Access to de-identified participant data for analysis Study PI and Study Faculty Sponsor: Full Access Research Team and Industry Sponsors: Limited Access Upon enrollment each participant will be assigned a unique study number. Any study data collected will be linked to the patient solely through the study number. The document that contains the patient information and their study numbers will by kept on Stanford RedCap and will only be accessible by the study PI and the faculty sponsor. De-identified data of vital sign measurements will be shared between the Stanford research team and industry collaborators. Data will be downloaded to an encrypted USB key and hand-delivered between members of the research team. For smaller files, de-identified patient data will be mailed securely between the research team members.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Investigational Device: Contactless heart rate and respiratory rate monitor, Heart Rate (EKG) Monitor and Respiratory rate Monitor in people with Copd and Asthma, run by Stanford University 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 5 inclusion and 22 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 28 Sep 2021. 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?

Heart Rate (time frame: 30 - 60 minutes). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04003415, which also lists 2 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 28 Sep 2021.
