Contributing Factors to Local Bioimpedance Spectroscopy
Norway11 participantsStarted 2023-09-04
Plain-language summary
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).

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
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 precipitati…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
