Evaluating Non-Invasive Haptics During Extreme Exercise (ENDURE)

December 3, 2025 updated by: SuperPatch Limited LLC

ENDURE- Evaluating Non-Invasive Haptics During Extreme Exercise

This study aims to compare determinants of endurance performance between participants wearing an active patch with haptic vibrotactile trigger technology (VTT) versus a placebo patch without VTT among recreational to competitive runners over a 4-week training period.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in VO2 Max
Time Frame: 2-weeks and 4-weeks after baseline assessment
Change in VO₂max (mL/kg-¹/min-¹, calculated as a 30-second rolling average)
2-weeks and 4-weeks after baseline assessment

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Lactate-threshold running speed
Time Frame: 2-weeks and 4-weeks after baseline assessment
Measurement of Lactate-threshold running speed using capillary sampling (LT, km/h-¹), determined using a DmodMax algorithm on lactate-speed curves [15], (2) serum lactate level at threshold (mmol·L-¹).
2-weeks and 4-weeks after baseline assessment
