Clinical Trial: Development of a Torso Patch Sensor (C-TraQ) as a Companion Device to a Fingertip Sensor (TipTraQ) for Direct Monitoring of Respiratory Effort

U.S., Aug. 5 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07744854) titled 'Development of a Torso Patch Sensor (C-TraQ) as a Companion Device to a Fingertip Sensor (TipTraQ) for Direct Monitoring of Respiratory Effort' on July 29.

Brief Summary: The existing PranaQ system utilizes a fingertip sensor that captures PPG(Photoplethysmography) and accelerometer data, and its clinical validation is well-established. While PPG alone has shown effectiveness in diagnosing obstructive sleep apnea, its limited data channels restrict comprehensive evaluation. For instance, it struggles to link apnea events with body position or differentiate between central and obstructive sleep apnea.

To address these limitations, th...
