AeviceMD for Detection of Wheeze in Pediatric and Adult Populations

A Pilot Study to Assess Aevice Medical Device for Detection of Wheeze in Pediatric and Adult Populations

Sponsor

Aevice Health Pte. Ltd.

Enrollment

160 participants

Start Date

Jun 29, 2023

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Asthma Respiratory Tract Diseases Chronic Respiratory Disease Pediatric Asthma Subject Presenting Wheeze Bronchial Disease

Summary

Respiratory signs and symptoms consisting of wheeze, cough, and breathlessness are obtained in a manual fashion through history taking and physical examination by the healthcare professional. Auscultation of the lung assesses airflow through the trachea-bronchial tree and is helpful in diagnosing various respiratory disorders. AeviceMD is a wearable device that can acquire and process lung sounds, thus assisting in the detection of abnormal lung sounds. The primary objective of this study is to determine if AeviceMD can detect wheeze of pediatrics and adults as accurately as a physician through auscultation. The secondary objective is to investigate if AeviceMD can be used for remote auscultation of breath sounds.

Eligibility

Min Age: 3 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is evaluating a device called AeviceMD — a wearable sensor placed on the chest — that uses sound to detect wheezing (a whistling sound caused by narrowed airways) in children and adults with asthma. The study is testing whether this device accurately identifies wheeze during acute asthma episodes in the emergency department. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 3 years old or older - You (or your child) have been diagnosed by an emergency department doctor with an acute asthma attack - You (or a parent/guardian) are willing and able to give consent to participate **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have another significant health condition that could affect the study results or put you at risk Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
