Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Diagnostic Image Quality (Trained Healthcare Professional)
Evaluate the product's ability to assist the user to capture a LUS image with diagnostic quality. Percentage of zones with diagnostic image quality \> 0.80
Up to 24 weeks from completion of the study.
B-Lines Detection
Evaluate the product's ability to retrospectively detect present B-lines on images acquired by a local expert with no Caption Lung AI assistance. AUROC \> 0.80; Sensitivity (Se) \> 0.80; Specificity (Sp) \> 0.75
Up to 24 weeks from completion of the study.
B-Line Significance
Evaluate the product's ability to retrospectively detect B-lines of significant severity on images acquired by a local expert with no Caption Lung AI assistance. AUROC \> 0.80; Sensitivity (Se) \> 0.80; Specificity (Sp) \> 0.75
Up to 24 weeks from completion of the study.
Remote Reader Performance
Evaluate the product's impact on a remote expert reader's ability to interpret LUS images. Difference Between Aided \& Unaided Groups: AUROC \> 0.00; Sensitivity (Se) \> 0.00; Specificity (Sp) \> 0.00
Up to 24 weeks from completion of the study.
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Sub-group Analyses
Up to 24 weeks from completion of the study.
Study Arms (1)
Patients presenting with clinical suspicion of B-Lines
EXPERIMENTALPatients will undergo two 8-zone protocol lung ultrasound exams. One exam will be conducted by an expert lung ultrasound user without Caption LungAI and will last approximately 5-10 minutes. The second exam will be conducted by a healthcare professional with Caption LungAI and will last approximately 15-20 minutes.
Interventions
Caption LungAI is a software that is designed to help non-expert healthcare professionals acquire diagnostic quality images on an 8-zone lung protocol for both healthy patients and patients presenting with pathology such as B-Lines.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients over the age of 18
- Patients presenting to the hospital or outpatient setting with shortness of breath and suspected B-lines.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients in extremis/in whom a research lung ultrasound would not normally be performed due to other priorities
