NCT05080881

Brief Summary

Blood volume measurements are a critical step in the emergency care of trauma patients. The typical approach to this is to rely on historical information, physical examination and metrics such as heart rate. There is currently no good real-time measure to track blood volume. This study investigates the use of phonocardiography (listening to the sounds made by the heart) to track changes in central blood volume.

Study Arms (1)

Blood draw

EXPERIMENTAL

All blood draw subjects will have baseline data collected over 15 minutes. The participants with then donate blood. For 15 minutes after the blood donation, the participant will stay in place and will continue to have data collected.

Diagnostic Test: phonocardiographic measurement: InnoVital SystemsDiagnostic Test: phonocardiographic measurement: ThinkLabs StethOneDiagnostic Test: physiological measurements: BIOPACDiagnostic Test: physiological measurements: Masimo Radical-7Diagnostic Test: physiological measurements: CoVa Monitoring System 2Diagnostic Test: Thoracic impedance

Interventions

The instrument consists of one or more low-profile microphones in plastic housings with nitrile or silicon diaphragms. These sensors convert heart sounds into analog signals that will be acquired by the BIOPAC data acquisition system.

Also known as: InnoVital Systems
Blood draw

This device senses heart sounds and may be listened to using headphones and converted to an analog signal and saved using the BIOPAC data acquisition system.

Also known as: ThinkLabs StethOne
Blood draw

Non-invasive blood pressure, electrocardiogram, heart rate, respiratory rate, and leg circumference - This is a commercially available device used regularly in health care settings to monitor continual blood pressure and heart rate.

Also known as: BIOPAC
Blood draw

A commercially available device for pulse oximetry and continuous non-invasive hematocrit measurement.

Also known as: Masimo Radical-7
Blood draw

This device will be used for thoracic bioimpedance and other physiological measures. This is a commercially available device. It also measures ECG, heart rate, heart rate variability, estimated stroke volume, and estimated cardiac output. The study team may measure either while body bioimpedance or thoracic bioimpedance.

Also known as: CoVa Monitoring System 2
Blood draw
Thoracic impedanceDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Thoracic impedance is measured using the Starling device (https://usstarling.baxter.com/starling-system). Baxter uses a series of proprietary algorithms to infer stroke volume and cardiac output from thoracis impedance. Calculated values will be recorded, but the main variable that will be recorded is simply the temporal profile of thoracic impedance during the manipulations in each group (changing lower body negative pressure or therapeutic phlebotomy).
