Trial Outcomes & Findings for Reassure Device: Measurement Accuracy of Continuous Respiration Rate (NCT NCT02740478)

NCT ID: NCT02740478

Last Updated: 2021-04-02

Results Overview

The respiration rate measured contemporaneously by the Reassure and the reference device, SomnoScreen, are compared on a second-by-second basis, over the whole recording duration. The difference between the two respiration rate measurements (the delta) for all 20 subjects' recordings are plotted on a normal distribution chart, giving 130,000 data points. The distribution chart reveals the mean difference between the two devices' measurements and the Standard Deviation (SD). The measure of success is if the 95% (ie 2SD) of the difference in the respiration rate indicated by the two devices (the delta) is less than 5 breaths per minute. This measure is derived from the peer review paper by Lim et al, cited in the References section

Measure
Reassure 10.5 GHz Sensor Sleep Simulation
Volunteer subjects, willing to undergo the trial of lying still on a bed for 2 hours. The subject's position changed every 20 minutes so that a range of positions explored. Subjects' respiration rate measure by the non-contact Reassure device and compared to a SomnoScreen device that uses chest effort belts to record the respiration rate. Volunteers recruited until there were 20 that completed the study.
