Wearable Auscultation Device Validation in Children
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This observational clinical study is an evaluation of a diagnostic tool through comparison. Similar to a validation study, the output of the RESP device will be compared to physician auscultation, surrogated by having an attending pulmonologist listen to blinded recordings.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Compare the output of the RESP Biosensor System to breath sound interpretation of an attending physician via collected recordings from stethoscope and completion of a comparison questionnaire [12 months]
PI will compare Strados RESP portal output with concurrent recordings collected via Littmann 300 Stethoscope. A questionnaire will be used to record and determine similarities and differences between RESP output and Littmann output, ultimately validating the intended use. Spectrographic data and audio recordings obtained via auscultation will be collected respectively by the RESP device and a separate recording stethoscope (Littman CORE Digital Stethoscope) simultaneously. Demographic and clinical data will be collected and stored in REDcap.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Tolerability and usability assessed utilizing The System Usibility Scale to evaluate attitudes towards the use and tolerance of the device by patients and caregivers [12 months]
Assess the tolerability and usability of the Strados device by patients and caregivers utilizing the System Usability Scale will be used to evaluate subjects and caregivers attitudes towards the use and tolerance of the device. The System Usability Scale is a validated tool for evaluation of the usability and tolerability of a device or system by users. Then, subjects and caregivers will engage in a recorded interview using talk-aloud feedback. Recorded data will be transcribed and evaluated through quality analysis
