Contributing Factors to Local Bioimpedance Spectroscopy (COBI)

March 8, 2024 updated by: Mode Sensors AS

Assessment of Contributing Factors to Local Bioimpedance Spectroscopy Using a Wearable Sensor: An Intervention Study

This is an exploratory interventional study. The aim of the investigation is to identify and quantify contributing factors to local bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) measured by a wearable sensor patch, particularly the effect of fluid shifts caused by postural changes and lower body negative pressure (LBNP).

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.

Detailed Description

The investigational devices (patches) will perform near-continuous measurements of multifrequency bioimpedance (BIS), temperature, and body orientation (accelerometer) during the entire period of wear (2 days). Patches will be mounted at the upper body (back and thorax) and calf. The primary objective is to assess the effect of prolonged lower body negative pressure (LBNP) on the BIS of the calf. The target population is healthy volunteers between 18-50 years old.

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

  • Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 18 to 50 years of age, at the time of signing the informed consent
  • Overtly healthy as determined by medical evaluation including medical history, physical examination and focused cardiac ultrasound.
  • Use of adequate birth control for women of childbearing potential. Inclusion is possible when an acceptable effective contraceptive measure is used (combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception, progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation, intrauterine device, intrauterine hormone-releasing system, bilateral tubal occlusion, vasectomised partner or sexual abstinence).
  • Capable of giving signed informed consent which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known allergies or skin sensitivities to electrode hydrogel and/or acrylic adhesives
  • Breached skin at patch mounting area.
  • Implantable pulse generators such as pacemakers and defibrillators, and/or use of other electrical medical equipment for which an interaction effect with the investigational device cannot be ruled out.
  • Planned magnetic resonance (MR) imaging during the investigation period
  • Any medical condition limiting physical exertional capacity or requiring regular medication (allergy and contraceptives excepted).
  • Pregnancy
  • Breastfeeding
  • History of syncope (syncope of presumed vasovagal nature with known precipitating factor excepted).
  • Any known cardiac disease that, at the investigator's discretion, warrants exclusion from the study, including but not limited to cardiac arrhythmia, esophageal varices, and aneurysms.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
Other: Wearable bioimpedance sensor
All subjects will use the investigational device and undergo several interventions: lower body negative pressure (3-40 minutes at 30 mmHg), posture intervention, and pressure intervention.
Device: Wearable bioimpedance sensor
The investigational device is an electronic bioimpedance-based, body-worn, battery-powered sensor intended to monitor changes in fluid volume. It is designed as an adhesive patch with four integrated electrodes.

What is the study measuring?

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Relative change in extracellular resistance of the calf from t0 to t1 (immediately before and after 40 minutes of LBNP at 30 mmHg), measured by the investigational bioimpedance device
Time Frame: 40 minutes
Relative change in extracellular resistance at the calf from before to after 40 minutes of lower body negative pressure, to assess the effect of prolonged LBNP.
40 minutes

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in extracellular resistance at the upper back following postural changes, measured by the investigational bioimpedance device.
Time Frame: 6 hours
Relative change in extracellular resistance at the upper back following changes in posture
6 hours
Changes in extracellular resistance at the upper back following application of three different external pressures.
Time Frame: 2 hours
Mean differences in extracellular resistance of the upper back, when the subject lays in a supine position on three different surfaces. Extracellular resistance is measured by the investigational bioimpedance device.
