Trial Outcomes & Findings for Randomized Evaluation of Ten Allergy Skin Prick Test Devices (NCT NCT03509766)

NCT ID: NCT03509766

Last Updated: 2018-08-16

Results Overview

Compare Wheal response among devices using 1mm precision. SPT test will be read at 15 min time point. The maximum wheal diameter will be recorded for each of ten skin prick devices. 3mm (and 2mm above negative control) qualify as a positive test.

Wheal Response
6.8 mm
Standard Deviation 0.4

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 15 minutes

Sensitivity is calculated by dividing the true positive wheals divided by true positives plus false negatives and multiplying by 100. For example one false negative out of 24 tests equals a sensitivity of 95.8%.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 15 minutes

Population: All 24 subjects received DuoTip II with both 1mg/ml and 6mg/ml histamine. This 24 vs 24 SPT in 24 total subjects.

Compare 1mg/ml versus 6mg/ml histamine base for Duotip II twist method. Maximum wheal diameter is measured for each concentration.
