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 Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Adult subjects with suspicion of pleural effusion or lung consolidation will be enrolled in the study. In addition, pediatric subjects with suspicion of lung consolidation (with weight of at least 10 kg) will be enrolled.

Who may be able to join

  • Subjects presenting to the Emergency Department, admitted to the hospital, or seen in the outpatient setting with suspicion of pleural effusion or lung consolidation who received chest imaging to include chest X-ray or CT, or for whom chest X-ray or CT are planned.
  • Suspicion of pleural effusion or lung consolidation may be based upon imaging findings or presentation of symptoms including (but not limited to) dyspnea, hypoxia, tachypnea, rales, or dullness.
  • All attempts should be made for subjects to undergo scanning of 14 lung zones (adults) and 12 lung zones (pediatrics). Attempts should also be made to capture all required lung zones in adults and pediatrics. Instances where all zones cannot be captured need to be documented and reason for inability to scan them provided in EDC. See Section 8.1.3 Lung Ultrasound Exams.
  • Subject is willing to provide informed consent (or assent where age appropriate) to participate in the study. Subjects under 18 years of age require informed consent of a parent or guardian and assent as required by institutional IRB.
  • Weight of subject is greater than or equal to 10 kg.

Who cannot join

  • Subject has pathology precluding safe and pain-free ultrasound probe placement such as burn, significant soft tissue injury or surgical incisions.
  • Current imprisonment.
  • Pregnancy (self-reported)
  • Subjects with breast implants
  • Prior pleurodesis procedure.
  • History of severe lung disease and home oxygen use
Show all 11Show fewer
  • Presence of subcutaneous air that precludes imaging
  • Body Mass Index (BMI) > 40
  • Significant scoliosis (Cobb angle ≥ 20 degrees).
  • Pediatric subjects with chronic lung diseases other than asthma.
  • Pediatric subjects on chronic respiratory support (i.e., nasal canula, CPAP, BiPAP, or tracheostomy).

About this study

This study is being conducted to collect image data and relevant clinical data from medical records of patients with suspicion of lung consolidation or pleural effusion. The information will be used to test the performance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in identification of features associated with the above lung conditions.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, observational, multi-center, post-market clinical study. Enrollment will continue (up to a maximum of 500 adult subjects and up to 300 pediatric subjects) until diagnostic LUS exams are acquired for each of the following groups:

Approximately 500 Adult subjects targeting:

  • Approximately 175 exams from patients positive for lung consolidation
  • Approximately 175 exams from patients positive for pleural effusion
  • Approximately 150 exams from patients negative for both conditions

Approximately 300 pediatric subjects targeting:

  • Approximately 150 exams from patients positive for lung consolidation
  • Approximately 150 exams from patients negative for lung consolidation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pleural Effusion and Lung Consolidation, run by Philips Clinical & Medical Affairs Global at 5 sites 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 5 inclusion and 11 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 15 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites 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?

The study data will be used to support future performance assessments for Artificial Intelligence based algorithms as described by FDA guidance for Computer Assisted Detection and Diagnostic Devices (time frame: Discharge up to 30 days (Single visit)). 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 Dec 2023.
