Clinical Calibration & Validation of a Next-Generation Blood Pressure Monitor for Patient Management (CCV)

August 3, 2021 updated by: Sohrab Lutchmedial, MD, FRCPC, Cardiovascular Research New Brunswick

Comparison, Calibration, and Validation of the Non-invasive Cloud DX Pulsewave Health MonitorTM With Direct Invasive Radial and Central Arterial Measurements During Cardiac Catheterization

The objective of the Cloud DX Pulsewave Health Monitor study is to prospectively calibrate and validate a novel, non-invasive wrist cuff blood pressure device against the gold standard for hemodynamic monitoring (intra-arterial pressure) in voluntarily consented patient participants who are scheduled for an elective cardiac catheterization procedure for clinically valid reasons.

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

The Cloud DX Pulsewave Health Monitor is a non-invasive wrist cuff blood pressure device that is licensed by Health Canada with Food and Drug Administration approval. Systolic and diastolic pressures are measured via the arterial pulse waveform of the left radial artery. Initially, the blood pressure algorithm was created and calibrated using the auscultatory method. The purpose of this study is to calibrate the device to the clinical gold standard of peripheral and central intra-arterial pressures.

The device acquires a pulse signal in real-time, stores signal and measurement data, and displays stored signal and measurement data for interpretation via internet servers where it is accessible by end-users (physicians and/or patients). The system provides secure accounts for both in-patient and out-patient monitoring. Cloud DX's Pulsewave Health Monitor servers are housed in a secure data center. Privacy measures are to SSAE16 SOC-1 Type-II compliance: 1) restricted secure access, 2) dedicated firewall, 3) HTTPS channel communication via website, 4) self-encrypting hard-drives rendered useless if removed from the server.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

19 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients scheduled for an elective, non-emergent cardiac catheterization with right radial access; exclusion criteria being no history of peripheral vascular disease, no previous coronary artery bypass graft, no precious percutaneous coronary intervention, abdominal aortic aneurysm, arrhythmia, hand/body tremor, nor bilateral arm pressure inequality during history and physical.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • ≥ 19 years of age
  • Patients recommended by their cardiologist for a first-time, elective cardiac catheterization procedure
  • Wrist circumference between 13.5cm - 23cm (5.3 - 9.1in.)
  • Bilateral arm blood pressure equality (systolic within ±10mmHg; diastolic within ±5mmHg) on 2 separate readings (Nurse Associate & TRA)
  • Willing to volunteer to participate and to sign the study specific informed consent form

Exclusion Criteria:

  • No history of peripheral vascular disease, no previous percutaneous coronary intervention, nor previous coronary artery bypass graft
  • No arrhythmia
  • No abdominal aortic aneurysm
  • No hand/body tremor

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
November 1, 2013

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
