About this study

Official title: A Prospective Clinical Study of the Ability of the CloudCath System to Detect Peritonitis During In-home Peritoneal Dialysis

This study aims to determine if the CloudCath device can detect infections related to peritoneal dialysis (peritonitis) as fast or faster than the current standard methods used by patients and doctors to detect such infections.

Read the detailed description

This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the CloudCath System to detect the onset of peritonitis as compared to standard of care.

Study Participants will connect the CloudCath System to their home peritoneal dialysis unit and the CloudCath System will analyze the effluent dialysis solution for changes associated with peritonitis. The notification capability of the CloudCath System will be deactivated for this study so that neither Study Participants nor Study Investigators will be aware of the device measurements.

Following enrollment, Study Participants will use the CloudCath System for 12 continuous months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time of peritonitis detection (vs lab measures)

    The time peritonitis is detected by the CloudCath System, as compared to time of laboratory evidence of peritonitis

    Measured: through 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Time of peritonitis detection (vs clinical measures)

    The time peritonitis is detected by the CloudCath System, as compared to time of peritonitis detection by standard clinical means (ISPD guidelines)

    Measured: through 12 months

  2. Sensitivity and specificity of the CloudCath System detection of peritonitis

    Analysis of sensitivity and specificity of CloudCath System detection of peritonitis, as compared to diagnostic laboratory testing

    Measured: through 12 months

  3. Ability of study participants to use the CloudCath System as intended

    Device performance measure; ability to use as intended

    Measured: through 12-months of study follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Peritoneal Dialysis-associated Peritonitis, run by CloudCath 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 4 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 30 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 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?

Time of peritonitis detection (vs lab measures) (time frame: through 12 months). 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 30 May 2023.
