About this study

The goal of this clinical trial is to test microwave metamaterial glucose sensor on blood samples. It means to compare the results of glucose values obtained by microwave metamaterial sensor and by standard biochemical analyzer.

Read the detailed description

Participants will include physiological and pathological populations. Participants donate approximately 5 ml of blood sample. Three sample tubes will be collected from ten adult participants. In the first test tube, the blood glucose content will be determined by a validated biochemical analyzer (Roche, Switzerland). In the remaining volume of the blood sample, the dielectric parameters (relative permittivity and conductivity) will be estimated using a coaxial probe (Keysight, USA). Microwave metamaterial sensors with 5, 7 and 9 unit cells will be loaded with blood samples and the specific scattering matrices will be obtained using a vector network analyzer. The main monitored outcome measure will be the phase of parameter S21.

What participants receive

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

  • In vitro full blood diagnostic test.Diagnostic test

    Participant will donate approximately 5 ml blood sample. Later in a laboratory the sample will be processed in the microwave metamaterial sensor for non invasive blood glucose monitoring and standard biochemical analyzer. Specific dielectric properties and scattering parameters will be measured for blood glucose level determination.

What is being measured

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

  1. Phase shift of scattering parameter S21

    The proposed microwave sensor uses a section of planar metamaterial transmission line operating at GHz frequencies. The speed of electromagnetic wave propagation through the sample is affected by the concentration of glucose. The delay can be expressed in degrees (°) as the phase of the complex S21 parameter.

    Measured: When blood sample is filled into sensor chamber within 24 hours from blood collection.

  2. Blood glucose concentration

    Molar mass of glucose dissolved in liquid blood sample expressed as molar concentration (mmol/l).

    Measured: When blood sample is processed in biochemical analyzer within 24 hours from blood collection.

  3. Blood sample specific electrical conductivity

    The specific electrical conductivity (S/m) of the blood samples will be measured using a coaxial probe.

    Measured: When blood sample is presented into the co-axial probe container within 24 hours from blood collection.

  4. Blood sample relative permittivity

    The relative permittivity (-) of the blood samples will be measured using a coaxial probe.

    Measured: When blood sample is presented into the co-axial probe container within 24 hours from blood collection.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Sensor sensitivity

    Present the relation between the value of he Phase shift of scattering parameter S21 and Blood glucose concentration.

    Measured: After primary data acqiusition.

  2. Mathematical model of blood glucose dependence on blood dielectric parameters

    The mathematical model describing which combination of dielectric parameter values (specific electrical conductivity and relative permittivity) corresponds to the certain blood glucose level.

    Measured: After primary data acqiusition.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing In vitro full blood diagnostic test. in people with Diabetes, run by Czech Technical University in Prague at 1 site in Czechia.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 Feb 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 Czechia. 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?

Phase shift of scattering parameter S21 (time frame: When blood sample is filled into sensor chamber within 24 hours from blood collection.). The study lists 4 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 Feb 2024.
