Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Diagnostic performance characteristics
Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values - of the imPulse™ Una device for point-of-care diagnosis of COVID-19.
through study completion, an average of 2 weeks
Study Arms (2)
Case
Inpatients with confirmed COVID-19 with pulmonary symptoms
Matched Control
Inpatients without COVID-19 with non-pulmonary diagnoses or symptoms
Interventions
The imPulse™ System is an every/anywhere-point-of-care cardiopulmonary functional state assessment platform designed to capture normal and abnormal, audible and inaudible cardiopulmonary sounds, rhythms and patterns, via a real-time, intelligent, full-spectrum phonocardiogram obtained from direct to skin coupling or through a layer of clothing.
Eligibility Criteria
Adult men and women will be recruited from among hospitalized patients with symptomatic COVID-19 infection who are not receiving ventilator support. One hospitalized control without lung disease or pulmonary symptoms will be selected for each case.
You may qualify if:
- Individuals hospitalized within a Johns Hopkins-affiliated hospital
- Able to understand and willingness to comply with study procedures
- Cases - inpatients with positive COVID-19 PCR test, collected from a respiratory sample within the last 7 days, AND pulmonary symptoms within 72 hours of enrollment
- Controls - inpatients without COVID-19 diagnosis and no pulmonary diagnosis or symptoms
- Cases or Control not able to sit or stand will be allowed to participate in just the parts of the staircase exam they're capable of doing.
You may not qualify if:
- Assisted ventilation, including high flow nasal cannula, or ventilator support
- Unable to comply with study procedures, defined at investigator's discretion
- Participants with any visible skin infections or open wounds in areas where the imPulse™ Una device would be applied
