About this study

Official title: A Comparative Single Centre Study Assessing the Relationship Between Acoustic Breath Sounds as Measured by a Commercially Available Sound Recording Device Against Standard of Care (Spirometry) in the Assessment of Airflow Obstruction in Patients Who Plan to Undergo Spirometry Testing

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess whether wheeze as assessed by a commercially available wheeze monitor is comparable to lung function as measured during a spirometry test. The main questions it aims to answer are whether measures of airflow obstruction (FEV1, FEV1/FVC, PEF) correlate with wheeze score (Tw/Ttot%).

Participants consenting to take part will undergo wheeze measurement prior to and during a spirometry test and will be asked to complete a series of symptom questionnaires.

What participants receive

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

  • Wheeze measurementDevice

    Acoustic breath sounds will be measured during tidal breathing prior to spirometry and during a spirometry attempt.

What is being measured

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

  1. Wheeze score (Tw/Ttot%)

    The average proportion of each breath that contained wheeze during a 30 second breath sound recording.

    Measured: Day 1

  2. FEV1/FVC

    the ratio between forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC)

    Measured: Day 1

  3. FEV1

    Measured: Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Wheeze measurement in people with Asthma COPD, run by University Hospital Birmingham at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 15 Sep 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 Kingdom. 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 Brendan Cooper, PhD (01213713890, Brendan.Cooper@uhb.nhs.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Wheeze score (Tw/Ttot%) (time frame: Day 1). The study lists 3 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 15 Sep 2023.
