Trial summary

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a disease without a primary cure that requires lifelong care and is characterized by pulmonary exacerbations (PEx). Wearable devices could provide a way for long-term monitoring of disease progression and early signs of PEx to intervene as early as possible, thereby improving long-term… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Piloting the Clinical Value of Wearable Cardiorespiratory Monitoring for People With Cystic Fibrosis

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a disease without a primary cure that requires lifelong care and is characterized by pulmonary exacerbations (PEx). Wearable devices could provide a way for long-term monitoring of disease progression and early signs of PEx to intervene as early as possible, thereby improving long-term outcomes.

This in-hospital feasibility study will assess the ability of Byteflies Sensor Dots to collect relevant cardiorespiratory data in people with CF and its compatibility with clinical workflows, 2) identify candidate digital biomarkers, and 3) collect user feedback from patients and healthcare providers.

What participants receive

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

  • Wearable deviceDevice

    Also called Byteflies Sensor Dot

    Multimodal electrocardiography (ECG), bioimpedance (bioZ) and tri-axial accelerometry (ACC) monitoring with a single wearable device (Byteflies Sensor Dot) to derive heart rate, respiratory rate and actigraphy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensor Dot usability

    Assessed via user (healthcare professional and patient) surveys.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

  2. Sensor Dot data quality

    Evaluated by visual examination of recorded electrocardiography (ECG), bioimpedance (bioZ), and accelerometry (ACC) data.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Quality of calculated vital signs: heart rate

    Compare Sensor Dot heart rate (derived from ECG) in beats-per-minute against heart rate as measured by standard hospital equipment.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

  2. Quality of calculated vital signs: respiratory rate

    Compare Sensor Dot respiratory rate (derived from bioZ) in breaths-per-minute against respiratory rate as measured by standard hospital equipment.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

  3. Cough detection

    Assess if cough events can be derived from the wearable data, as compared to self-reported outcomes.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

  4. Screen for candidate digital biomarkers in CF

    Evaluate correlations between the recorded vital sign data (Sensor Dot) and CF severity scores derived from routine pulmonary function testing (PFT, based on Global Lung Function Initiative) and PEx.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Wearable device in people with Cystic Fibrosis, run by Byteflies 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 2 inclusion and 3 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 Jul 2020. 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?

Sensor Dot usability (time frame: Up to 24 hours). 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?
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 Jul 2020.
