Feasibility Study: Continuous ECG and Blood Pressure Monitoring With the M2VS Sensor System
Feasibility Study for Continuous Monitoring of Electrocardiogram (ECG) and Blood Pressure at the Chest and Upper Arm Using the M2VS System.
In this study, the investigators want to find out whether a new wearable sensor system, called the M2VS system, can reliably measure heart activity, blood pressure, and other vital signs over 24 hours during normal daily life.
The investigators also want to compare the M2VS system with the standard devices currently used for long-term heart and blood pressure monitoring, such as a Holter ECG and an ambulatory blood pressure monitor (ABPM). This will provide an estimation of the accuracy of the M2VS system's ECG and blood pressure measurements compared to the standard devices.
The aim of the study is to assess how reliable the M2VS system is in terms of data completeness and how comfortable it is to wear compared with the usual monitoring devices.
In the future, the results of this study may help make the monitoring of heart and blood vessel diseases more comfortable and easier for patients.
연구 개요
상태
상세 설명
Cardiovascular diseases remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Long-term ambulatory monitoring of electrocardiography (ECG) and blood pressure is essential for the detection and management of conditions such as paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and masked hypertension. However, current standard monitoring devices, including Holter ECG monitors and ambulatory blood pressure monitors, may be limited by reduced wearing comfort, skin irritation from adhesive electrodes, motion artefacts, and discontinuous blood pressure measurements.
This feasibility study evaluates a novel wearable sensor system, the M2VS system, designed as a flexible textile-based band integrating dry electrodes and multiple sensors for continuous multimodal vital signs monitoring. The system records ECG, photoplethysmography (PPG), inertial measurement unit (IMU) data, body temperature, bioimpedance, acoustic respiratory signals, and piezo sensor data over a 24-hour period in daily life. In this study, the M2VS system will be used strictly as a non-diagnostic data logger.
This study will provide critical insights into the signal quality and technical reliability of a non-invasive, multi-sensor wearable compared to current standard of care (Holter monitor and ABPM). By evaluating the wearable, the research aims to overcome the comfort and compliance barriers of existing monitoring systems. These findings may represent a significant step toward developing more reliable, continuous diagnostic tools for the long-term management of conditions like atrial fibrillation and hypertension.
