About this study

Official title: Clinical Utility of Strados System in Periodically Recording Auscultation to Provide Replay Capability and Telemedicine Monitoring of Inpatients After Initial Clinical Assessment.

Listening to breath sounds with the stethoscope/auscultation is used by pulmonary physicians in conjunction with pulmonary function, signs and symptoms, oxygen saturation and diagnostic testing to admit, follow and discharge patients from hospital. Of these, only auscultation routinely ceases upon discharge from Hospital. Healthcare utilization statistics have shown that for more than a decade, readmission after discharge for an exacerbation of COPD or severe asthma (or chronic heart failure) remains a major problem. The Strados System has been designed to extend the range of lung sound recording both geographically and temporally to improve the standard of care when access to continuous monitoring has been replaced by periodic or no monitoring. The primary purpose of this study is to assess the clinical utility of the Strados System in enabling periodic recording and reviewing of breath sounds in patients with chronic respiratory diseases, either in the ICU, or in less continuously monitored settings, including after inpatient discharge.

What participants receive

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

  • RESPDevice

    Also called Strados System

    The RESP device will be placed on the patient for periodic recording of auscultory sound.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical utility as assessed by the PI

    To assess the clinical utility of Strados Systems in enabling periodic recording and reviewing of lung breath sounds of inpatients with chronic respiratory diseases in ICU , and less continuously monitored settings.

    Measured: Periodic recording over 12 to 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Clinical utility as assessed by other clinicians

    Measured: Periodic recording over 12 to 24 hours

  2. Correlation of RESP data with other measures of patient status.

    Measured: Periodic recording over 12 to 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Copd and Asthma, run by Strados Labs, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

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 9 inclusion and 6 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 2 Feb 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 States. 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?

Clinical utility as assessed by the PI (time frame: Periodic recording over 12 to 24 hours). 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 2 Feb 2023.
