Postbariatric EArly Discharge Controlled by Healthdot (PEACH)

This clinical investigation is a single center patient preference trial in a tertiary hospital in the Netherlands, designed to compare the outcome of two different recovery paths after standard of care bariatric surgery. The difference between both recovery paths is that half of the patients will get the standard of care by staying one night in the hospital before returning home (group B), while the other half will receive a Healthdot directly after surgery and leave the hospital on the same day (evening) (group A). 200 patients will be recruited and can choose whether they want to be assigned to the the regular recovery path or receive a Healthdot and leave the hospital on the same day. If they have no preference they will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups. Patients in the outpatient recovery group will wear the Healthdot for 7 days at home and vital signs (heart rate and respiratory rate, together with context data on activity and posture) will be transmitted to the hospital to monitor recovery. The study is mainly designed to investigate if the clinical outcome in both groups is equal (non-inferiority) based on a combined outcome measures like 30 days readmission rate and patient satisfaction.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

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.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study
