Brief Summary

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

The HypoVoice study aims at identifying potential vocal biomarkers associated with hypoglycemia to pave the way towards a voice-based hypoglycemia detection approach.

Detailed Description

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

While hypoglycemia has been widely studied in medical research, studies assessing vocal changes associated with this state are limited. This study aims at collecting a data set labelled with the gold standard (blood glucose) to provide a solid basis for the identification of vocal biomarkers using machine learning. Additionally, physiological data are collected using wearable sensors to assess whether additional integration of vital signs (e.g. heart rate) enhances the performance of hypoglycemia detection.

Primary Study Purpose

OTHER

Blinding Strategy

NONE

Participants are aware that hypoglycemia will be induced during the study but they are blinded to their blood glucose levels throughout the hypoglycemia procedure.
