Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to understand if a new, smart, wireless EEG developed by our team can be used to monitor the continuous electrical activity of the brain in the ICU and EMU and whether it works as well as the current standard, wired EEGs. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 1 day to 18 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: children between the ages of 0 and 18 years of age who are prescribed an EEG while admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) or Epilepsy Monitoring Unit (EMU)

Who may be able to join

  • Participants must be admitted to the PICU or EMU at Lurie Children's and are prescribed an EEG as part of their standard of care.

Who cannot join

  • Anyone with a skin abnormality that would potentially increase the risk of device use will be excluded.
  • Ages 18 years or older.
  • Any patient or family determined by an attending physician or bedside care team to be too unstable (patient) or experiencing too much stress (family) will not be approached for recruitment.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of a Wireless EEG Monitor for Pediatric Patients

The purpose of this study is to understand if a new, smart, wireless EEG developed by our team can be used to monitor the continuous electrical activity of the brain in the ICU and EMU and whether it works as well as the current standard, wired EEGs.

Read the detailed description

The investigators propose to 1) optimize these devices for use in pediatric ICU patients, 2) demonstrate safety, reliability, and accuracy of these devices for continuous ICU EEG signal measurements, and 3) demonstrate these devices are preferred by patients and parents to current EEG devices. Once validated, such sensors could fundamentally change the way patients are monitored by EEG in the ICU, allowing wireless, continuous, real-time detection of brain wave activity in ICU patients, reducing limitations in mobility as well as access by staff and caregivers to the patient, and ultimately offering opportunity to reduce morbidity and mortality in ICU patients.

What participants receive

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

  • wearable EEG sensorDevice

    Wireless wearable EEG devices offer a new, non-invasive, and easy way of performing EEG monitoring.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percent Agreement

    Percent agreement between experimental sensor and commercially available electroencephalogram (EEG)

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pediatric ALL and Epilepsy, run by Northwestern University 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 1 inclusion and 3 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 26 Mar 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 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?

Percent Agreement (time frame: 3 years). 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 26 Mar 2024.
