Brief Summary

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

This study evaluates the safety and performance of the PregnaOne System, a non-significant risk (NSR) investigational medical device for in-home fetal monitoring in pregnant women during the third trimester. The PregnaOne System consists of the Pregnabit Pro device and related software, designed to record fetal heart rate, maternal pulse, and uterine contractions in a home-like environment. The study compares the performance of the PregnaOne System with a similar FDA-cleared at-home monitoring system (the INVU system by Nuvo). Approximately 50 pregnant women will participate at three medical centers in the United States. Each participant will complete one training session and two fetal monitoring sessions during a single study visit.

Detailed Description

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

This is a prospective, single-visit, non-randomized, comparative study designed to evaluate the PregnaOne System, an investigational Class II medical device intended for in-home fetal monitoring. The system includes the Pregnabit Pro device and associated software that collect and transmit data on fetal heart rate, fetal movement, maternal pulse rate, and uterine muscle activity for remote review by healthcare professionals.

The goal of this study is to assess the safety, usability, and signal performance of the PregnaOne System compared to the INVU system, an FDA-cleared home fetal monitoring device. The study will be conducted under a non-significant risk (NSR) designation.

Approximately 50 pregnant women in their third trimester will be enrolled at three U.S. medical centers. Each participant will attend one in-clinic visit simulating an at-home environment. The study visit includes:

Training session - participants are instructed on how to use the PregnaOne System.

First monitoring session - a 30-minute fetal monitoring period using both the PregnaOne System and the INVU system simultaneously.

Second monitoring session - a 30-minute self-conducted monitoring session using only the PregnaOne System without staff assistance.

During each session, participants remain in a seated or reclined position and record fetal movements. Study staff will be available to assist and ensure participant safety.

No known risks are associated with fetal heart rate monitoring, though mild discomfort from device straps may occur.

Participants receive compensation for their time and travel. Study data will support the submission of a 510(k) premarket notification to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Intervention Model

SINGLE_GROUP

Participants will complete one study visit including two monitoring sessions: (1) simultaneous use of the PregnaOne System and INVU system, and (2) self-monitoring using only the PregnaOne System. No randomization or parallel assignment is applied.

Blinding Strategy

NONE

Open-label study. Participants and study personnel are aware of the device being used.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

PregnaOne System

Participants will use the PregnaOne System for fetal monitoring during a single study visit. Each participant will complete two monitoring sessions:

1. Simultaneous use of the PregnaOne System and the INVU system.
2. Self-monitoring using only the PregnaOne System. The study aims to evaluate the usability, safety, and performance of the PregnaOne System for non-stress fetal monitoring in a home-like setting.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

PregnaOne System

Intervention Type DEVICE

The PregnaOne System is a non-significant risk (NSR) investigational medical device designed for in-home fetal monitoring. It includes the Pregnabit Pro device and the cloud-based PregnaOne Platform software. The system records fetal heart rate, maternal pulse, and uterine activity, transmitting data to a remote monitoring center for clinical evaluation.

During the study, participants will perform two monitoring sessions:

1. Simultaneous use of the PregnaOne and INVU systems.
2. Independent monitoring using only the PregnaOne System. The study evaluates the usability, safety, and performance of the PregnaOne System in comparison with a reference device.
