About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Open-Label, Non-Randomized, Comparative Study Designed to Evaluate the Accuracy and Safety of HS-1000 Device, a Non-Invasive Intracranial Pressure (ICP) Monitor, in Patients Undergoing Invasive ICP Monitoring Procedure for Various Clinical Conditions

Invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring is highly effective, but involves risks. HS-1000 measures ICP non-invasively by assessing the acoustic properties of the patient's head. HS-1000 device, a proprietary new non-invasive ICP monitor, is expected to safely and accurately monitor ICP with minimal discomfort to patients, and provide information about normal or elevated ICP levels to the physicians.

The study objective is to compare the accuracy and safety profile of HS-1000, a non-invasive ICP monitor, to invasive ICP monitoring via an external ventricular drain (EVD)

What participants receive

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

  • EVDDevice

    ICP monitoring will be done in parallel for both HS-1000 and ICP monitoring via an EVD device (per clinical protocol without any change in the patient's management). HS-1000 ICP monitoring intervals will last from 30 minutes to 6 hours, continuously depending on the patient's clinical condition. Each such interval may occur three times a day or more depending on the clinical condition of the patient.

Study groups in NCT02284217
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients with invasive ICP monitor (EVD)ExperimentalHospitalized patients who have already been implanted with an invasive ICP monitor. Eligible patients will be enrolled into the study and HS-1000 headset portion of the device will be placed in their ears.
Receives: Device: EVD

What is being measured

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

  1. Post-hoc algorithm processing to compare ICP values (mmHg) of the HS-1000 device and invasive ICP monitor collected in each ICP monitoring cycle

    Measured: 2 months after last patient \ last visit

  2. Incidence of AEs through 48 hours from end of ICP monitoring with HS-1000 device

    Measured: 48 hours from end of ICP monitoring

  3. Rate of ear infections/irritations coded and graded using the adapted CTCAE dictionary provided to the site Principal Investigator (PI)

    Measured: 48 hours from end of ICP monitoring

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing EVD in people with Presence of High Intracranial Pressure, run by HeadSense Medical at 7 sites in 2 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 8 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 29 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in United States, Germany. 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 Nichol McBee, MPH, CCRP ((410) 614-6996, nmcbee@jhmi.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Post-hoc algorithm processing to compare ICP values (mmHg) of the HS-1000 device and invasive ICP monitor collected in each ICP monitoring cycle (time frame: 2 months after last patient \ last visit). 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 29 Apr 2016.
