Predicting Acute Exacerbations of COPD Using Wearable Devices and Remote Monitoring Technology With AI/ML Models (NCT06802003)

Early Prediction of Acute Exacerbations of COPD Using Wearable and Portable Remote Monitoring Technology With AI/ML Empowered Platforms: A Prospective Clinical Study

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Interventional Protocol ๐Ÿ“Š Observational Clinical Research Sponsor: McGill University Health Centre/Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This study is aimed to collect real-time physiological data using two wearable devices (a biometric ring and a biometric wristband), daily lung mechanical measurements by a handheld oscillometer, and participant-reported symptoms in patients with COPD remotely from their home environment. The data will be used to train and validate artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) models to predict COPD exacerbations in advance of their actual occurrence. The data will also be used to test the new severity classification system for exacerbations of COPD, as well as to determine important relationships between physiological measurements from the wearable devices, the handheld oscillometer, the self-reported symptoms, and the tests performed at the baseline visit.
