Trial summary

Participants with respiratory disease experience often a worsening of their condition, with increasing symptoms such as cough and shortness of breath. This worsening, often called exacerbation or flare up, impacts on the life of the participants, since they become limited in their daily activities. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Integrating Electronic Patient Reported Biometric Measures (ePReBMs) From the Health Gauge Phoenix Smart Watch in Respiratory Diseases

Participants with respiratory disease experience often a worsening of their condition, with increasing symptoms such as cough and shortness of breath. This worsening, often called exacerbation or flare up, impacts on the life of the participants, since they become limited in their daily activities.

Healthcare is still based today on limited times for clinical appointments to perform investigations and to meet with specialists/clinicians. Very often, these evaluations do not reflect the way the disease is limiting the patient's life.

Wearable devices offer the opportunity to collect data on physical activities and important clinical parameters (such as how the patient is active or just staying in bed during the day), on a daily basis.

The HG Phoenix AI- based Smart Watch produced by Health Gauge, an Albertan company based in Edmonton, has the potential to measure heart rate, heart rate variability, blood pressure, pulse wave velocity, respiratory rate, temperature, arterial saturation, sleep pattern (deep, light sleep, awake time), duration and time, daily physical activities (site count and distance) and calories burnt in a simple and non-invasive fashion. Ideally, these parameters could be monitored and recorded 24 hours per 7 days per week.

This study aims to demonstrate that this device can be used for a long time at home and it is comfortable to use for the participants, that it is not dangerous and, possibly, that it can help to identify exacerbations before the currently available investigations.

Read the detailed description

Participants will be asked to wear the Health Gauge AI-based Wearable Device for at least 8 hours per day (ideally 24 hours), 3 days per week, for 6 months. The following data will be continuously collected from the wearable device:

heart rate, blood pressure, pulse wave velocity, respiratory rate, temperature, arterial saturation, sleep patterns, daily physical activities (step count and distance), and calories burnt.

Clinical data including demographics, radiographic, cardiac and lung functioning, diagnosis, and comorbidities will be collected from the participant's electronic medical record at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months.

Quality of life questionnaires (Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire, Medical Research Council Dyspnea Score, and EQ5-DL) will be completed by the participant through the Zamplo digital app at baseline, 3 and 6-month time points. A questionnaire on participant experience will also be administered at the 3 and 6-month time points.

Participants will be called monthly to assess patient-reported compliance with the wearable device, and adverse events (including emergency room visits and hospitalizations).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Health Gauge AI-Based Wearable Device - Model: Phoenix in people with Pulmonary Hypertension and COPD, run by University of Alberta at 1 site in Canada.

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 10 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Oct 2024. 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 Canada. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Resource Issues). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Length of time wearing device (time frame: 6 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 29 Oct 2024.
