Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The huge impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on global healthcare systems has prompted search for novel tools to stem the tide. New digital health tools can provide possible health solutions in this time of unprecedented medical crisis to mitigate the impact of this pandemic. This proof of concept study will determine the feasibility and effectiveness of implementing a mobile application for contactless measurement of vital signs (MAC-VITAL) such as blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR) and oxyhemoglobin saturation (SpO2) from surgical patients peri-operatively. Contactless measurement of vital signs will bridge the current gap between virtual care and in-person medical assessments. This study aims to determine whether a mobile app can effectively measure vital signs without any person to person contact and how this technology can be implemented in a peri-operative setting during COVID-19.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is a prospective proof of concept study to be conducted at Toronto Western Hospital,Toronto General Hospital, Hamilton General Hospital (Hamilton, Ontario), Juravinski Hospital (Hamilton, Ontario) and Trillium Health Partners, Mississauga, Ontario. This proof of concept study will determine the feasibility and effectiveness of implementing a contactless mobile application to obtain vital signs from patients in the peri-operative setting. Informed consent to participate in the study will be obtained.

Vital signs measurement will be obtained by the research staff using hospital standard medical devices and the Anura Research App will also be used to measure vital signs. Measurement will take place before surgery and post surgery (1 ±2hrs and 2 ±4hrs after surgery).
