NCT ID: NCT04659564

Last Updated: 2021-06-01

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: NA
• Total Enrollment: 40 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2020-08-05
• Study Completion Date: 2021-05-28

Brief Summary

An open-label study to clinically assess a novel wearable advanced compression technology (Dayspring™) undertaken to determine if potential barriers to lymphedema self-care were effectively addressed. The Dayspring™ device is a novel FDA-cleared wearable solution that is portable and easy-to-use sequential compression system. The following endpoints are examined:

1. Improvement in QoL in subject with upper-extremity edema after 28 days as measured by the LYMQOL disease-specific validated assessment tool.

2. Arm volume maintenance or improvement as measured prior to and after 28 days of device use.

3. Safety as assessed by reported adverse events

4. Patient satisfaction as measured by visual analog scale (VAS) and survey at the end of the study; and

5. Adherence to therapy as measured with a smart phone app.

• Willing to sign the informed consent and deemed capable of following the study protocol
• Subjects must have a diagnosis of primary or secondary unilateral or bilateral upper extremity edema

Exclusion Criteria
