Official title
Measuring Thoracic Impedance in Hemodialysis Patients With the µ-Cor System A Pre-Market Validation Study (MaTcH)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to measure the fluid changes in the body using a device called the µ-Cor System, an investigational device. The µ-Cor System will record the fluid changes in the body, as well as ECG (electrocardiogram or an electrical tracing of your heart rhythm) heart rate, breathing rate, posture and activity at regular intervals. The information collected by the µ-Cor System will then be compared to the actual fluid removed through dialysis and to the information collected by an FDA (Food and Drug Administration) cleared device called ZOE (NonInvasive Medical Technologies), a monitor which also measures the fluid changes in the body. The objectives of this study are to document any differences in measurement of thoracic impedance obtained from the µ-Cor System and the ZOE system. Thoracic impedance is a measure of the electrical activity in the chest that varies with changes in body size and composition, fluid volume, breathing status and other variables. Measurements of the amount of fluid removed during dialysis will also be compared between the µ-Cor System, the ZOE system and the actual fluid removed. The ability of the µ-Cor System to measure thoracic impedance will be tested by placing the device randomly at one of two locations: * Study Arm 1: side location- below left axilla * Study Arm 2: front location - upper left pectoral area Both the µ-Cor System and the ZOE System will be worn simultaneously during one dialysis session. The ZOE system device is placed on the chest- 2 points: 1 at the base of your neck and 1 in your mid chest.
