What this trial studies
This observational study evaluates the accuracy of the Perin Health Patch (PHP), a non-invasive device worn on the chest that continuously measures blood oxygen saturation. Participants will breathe low-oxygen air to simulate various oxygen levels while their readings are compared to standard pulse oximeters. The study aims to assess the PHP's performance under controlled conditions, ensuring it meets safety standards and can provide reliable data for remote monitoring. Up to 25 healthy adults will participate in this single-site study, which includes controlled desaturation sessions and monitoring by clinical staff.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are healthy adults aged 18 to 50 who are fully vaccinated for COVID-19 and can comply with study procedures.
Not a fit: Patients with pre-existing conditions such as heart or lung diseases, or those over 50 years old, may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this device could enable continuous and accurate monitoring of blood oxygen levels in patients at home.
How similar studies have performed: While similar studies have explored wearable devices for monitoring vital signs, the specific approach of the PHP in this controlled setting is relatively novel.
