About this study

Official title: Development and Validation of Kinect Equations to Estimate Body Indices and Body Composition

This perspective observational study will recruited 240 participants for investigating the feasibility of using Microsoft Azure Kinect developer kit as a method for body indices and body composition. Reference methods will be dual energy X-ray absorptiometry and bioelectrical impedance analysis.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this research is to validate the precision and accuracy of Microsoft Azure Kinect Developer Kit in the application of body anthropometric index and body composition measures. This study assumes that depth camera along with skeletal tracking package can estimate the 3D joint position and skeletal length. A dual energy X-ray absorptiometry scanner, a medical device with a daily background dose of radiation will be used as the gold standard.

This study aims to investigate the correlation and agreement of using Kinect in estimating skeletal length and body composition in human.A total of 240 participants including children and adults will be recruited for measurements in a 3-year period.

Being tested
Microsoft Azure Kinect Developer Kit, Bioelectrical impedance analyzer, Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry

Receives: Diagnostic Test: Microsoft Azure Kinect Developer Kit; Diagnostic Test: Bioelectrical impedance analyzer; Diagnostic Test: Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry

What is being measured

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

  1. Assess association and agreement in body indices and body composition between Kinect and standard methods.

    Correlation and agreement between depth camera results are compared to the results of dual energy X-ray absorptiometry and bioelectrical impedance analysis.

    Measured: 36 months

  2. Develop and validate Kinect equations to predict body indices and body composition.

    Prediction equations for body indices and body composition are created using dual energy X-ray absorptiometry and bioelectrical impedance analysis as reference tools.

    Measured: 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anthropometry and Body Composition, run by Chang Gung Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 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 Taiwan. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Li-Wen Lee, MD, PhD (+886 5 3621 000 ext. 2382, m4572@cgmh.org.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assess association and agreement in body indices and body composition between Kinect and standard methods. (time frame: 36 months). 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 31 Aug 2021.
