Study population: The laboratory observation will consist of one non-patient subject (N=1). The hospital observation will consist of 18 patients (N=18) hospitalized at the Columbia University Medical Center on the general care floor at-risk for hospital-acquired pressure ulcers. The hospitalized subjects will be stratified into three groups. Six subjects with normal BMI classification (18.5 -24.9), six with overweight BMI classification (25.0-29.9), and six with overweight BMI classification (30.0-39.9) will comprise the study sample.

What participants receive

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

  • Zephyr BioPatchDevice

    Also called ZephyrLIFE Hospital System

    The ZephyrLIFE Hospital System includes the BioPatch™ device (consisting of the BioModule™ sensor, BioModule™ holder, and snap ECG electrodes), the ECHO radio system, and a software monitoring interface. The BioModule™ sensor is a Class II device, 510(k) cleared by the FDA, and commercially available.

    The ZephyrLIFE Hospital System stores, transmits and displays vital sign data including ECG, HR, RR, body orientation, and activity to caregivers via a central station.

What is being measured

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

  1. Body position

    Body position will be classified as facing right, facing left, facing down (prone), or facing up (supine).

    Measured: During a 2.5 hour lab observation

  2. Body position

    Body position when lying horizontally will be classified as facing right, facing left, facing down (prone), or facing up (supine).

    Measured: During a 24 hospital observation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Performance of the Zephyr BioPatch position output in hospitalized patients of varying body mass indexes (BMI)

    Body position when lying horizontally will be classified as facing right, facing left, facing down (prone), or facing up (supine).

    Measured: During a 24 hospital observation.

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?

Body position (time frame: During a 2.5 hour lab observation). 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.
