Testing of an Electronic Patch During Mild Dehydration

• Status: Not yet recruiting
• Trial end date: 2022-10-31
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

A new electronic patch has been developed that makes non-invasive measurements of bioimpedance in underlying tissues. The purpose of this study is to map the patch's ability to detect specific changes in hydration status in moderate hypovolemia with the device. In addition, the researchers want to record normal variation (diurnal variation and variation related to factors such as body position and body temperature) in bioimpedance in healthy volunteers
