About this trial

This study aims to develop and evaluate a wearable ultrasound imaging sensor for the early diagnosis and real-time monitoring of various diseases, such as cardiovascular conditions and structural abnormalities of superficial organs. With advancements in medical technology, wearable devices have attracted increasing attention for their portability and real-time capabilities.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Age ≥ 18 yrs and able to consent

Relevant diagnosis for study arm (heart failure, lower-limb DVT, or ICU monitoring)

Adequate acoustic window and intact skin at sensor site

Heart-failure arm: Clinically stable HFrEF or HFpEF on standard therapy

Disqualifiers

Poor acoustic window preventing interpretable images

Local skin infection, open wound, or implant/hardware blocking sensor

Inability to cooperate with monitoring

Heart-failure arm: Acute MI or uncontrolled arrhythmia in past 3 months

Trial design

Treatments tested in this trial

  • This study is designed to assess the non-inferiority of a novel ultrasound imaging technique, rather than to evaluate a therapeutic intervention.
