About this study

Official title: Timely Acquirement of 12-lead Electrocardiography Using Patchy-type Wireless Device by Emergency Medical Technicians in Ambulance ; A Simulation Study

In this study, the investigators compare timely acquirement and effectiveness of 12-lead ECG using patchy-type wireless versus using defibrillator which contain ECG examination function in ambulance.

The purpose of this study is to determine the difference of timely acquirement of 12-lead ECG using two different systems and the difference of efficiency of ECG examination in ambulance between two groups.

The participants in this simulation study were divided randomly into 2 groups :

Group A is performing an ECG examination on mock patient using defibrillator which contained 12-lead ECG checking function. And take a 15 minutes wash out period. After the wash out period, group A subject performing an ECG examination using patchy-type wireless device.

Group B subject is performing an ECG examination on mock patient using patchy-type wireless device first, and take a 15 minutes wash out period. After the wash out period, group B performing an ECG examination using defibrillator which contain 12-lead ECG function.

Both group's ECG examination is performing in the ambulance.

What participants receive

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

  • patchy-type wireless ECGDevice

    This device consists of a single patchy and save the ECG result as a Potable Document Format. Also can transfer to hospital using wifi-network.

  • defibrillator ECGDevice

    This device is essential equipment in ambulance. For 12-lead ECG examination the connector need to replace for specific cable.

Group A : defibrillator ECG to patchy-type ECGActive comparatorGroup A subject will performing ECG examination to a mock patient in the ambulance. First ECG performance will be using defibrillator which contain 12-lead ECG checking function. And taking a 15 minutes wash out period. Second ECG performance after wash out period, will be using patchy-type wireless device. when ECG examination performance ended, survey of patchy-type wireless ECG device usability will be collect.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time from 12-lead ECG device application starting to sending ECG result to hospital.

    comparison of interval from the start of 12-lead ECG device application to complete of ECG result sending

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 2 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Usability of patchy-type wireless ECG device.

    System Usability Scale survey of patchy-type wireless ECG device

    Measured: survey collecting through study completion an average of 2 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing patchy-type wireless ECG and defibrillator ECG in people with Chest Pain and Electrocardiography, run by Samsung Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Time from 12-lead ECG device application starting to sending ECG result to hospital. (time frame: through study completion, an average of 2 month). 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 NCT04114760, 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.
