Detailed Description
Ultrasound is a non-invasive, effective imaging methodology that is being used for many applications. The clinical availability of an ultra-portable app-based ultrasound system is a technology leap that has the potential to completely change the way ultrasound is used.
The objectives of this study are:
- Evaluate feasibility of use of a new app-based ultra-portable, ultrasound system in the clinical setting
- Review image quality and consistency of quality
- Examine the use of new app-based ultra-portable ultrasound as an extension of the physical exam and implementation into medical education
- Determine potential clinical applications, opportunities, and limits
- Perform intra-individual comparison to current clinical use ultrasound device
- Exam the perception and integration of new, ultra-portable ultrasound systems
- Determine the potential educational value to medical student experience
Experimental activities performed as a part of this research study are divided into three different categories based on participant population: Patient population: For these patients, the non-research activities will be their standard of care ultrasound examination or their ultrasound examination within another clinical research trial. For these participants, the experimental activities could involve four different scenarios: 1) Patient having a standard of care US and participates in the comparator assessment using the new or ultra-portable US technology, 2) Patient having a physical examination by a medical student, resident or physician, 3) Patient requiring vascular access, 4) Patient has a medical diagnosis and within this clinical trial the investigators will use and evaluate the new ultrasound technology regarding its potential of enabling novel application. For each of these scenarios, in addition to the investigational ultrasound examination, the patient will be given a questionnaire to give feedback from his or her perspective. Staff population: For the staff population, research activities will involve a questionnaire to provide feedback regarding the experience and perception of the ultraportable ultrasound technology at the completion of each ultrasound imaging session. Volunteer population: For these participants, all activities will be performed solely for the research study (i.e. there is no standard of care ultrasound examination). The investigators plan to have the volunteers involved in two different scenarios, which would all take place after informed consent has been given and documented: 1) Participation in a single ultrasound exam session, 2) Participation in multiple ultrasound exams and multiple operator sessions. In addition to receiving one or more ultrasound examinations, the volunteers will be asked to complete a questionnaire to provide feedback from his or her perspective regarding the ultraportable ultrasound technology.

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Patient population
When a patient receives an ultrasound examination as part of standard of care or within another clinical research trial, such an examination may serve for an intra-individual comparator examination between conventional and new, ultra-portable ultrasound imaging.
Patients will be identified in the clinical setting when appropriate and will be appropriately approached for consent for a combination of ultrasound with the physical exam, for medical student education, IV access, and novel application.
Patients will be enrolled and accounted for in the appropriate sub-population.

Experimental: Healthy volunteer population
The volunteer population will allow us to practice the use of this equipment and understand the limitations and applicability.
The results will be the images acquired as well as surveys from the volunteers and those performing the scans, who will be enrolled in the staff population of this study.

Experimental: Student and staff population
To understand the impact of ultraportable ultrasound, survey tools will be used to understand the workflow and clinical care applications and integration of these devices.
All staff and student members will be appropriately consented; however, we anticipate that this portion of the study will be minimal risk.
