NCT ID NCT06611293

First seen Jul 29, 2026 · Last updated Jul 30, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study investigates whether the location where a breath test is performed—a primary care clinic versus a hospital—changes the results. Healthy adults will provide breath samples in both settings on different days. The goal is to see if breath tests developed in hospitals can be reliably used in everyday clinics.

Active substance
breath test
What this could lead to
If the environment does not affect results, breath tests developed in hospitals could be reliably used in doctor's offices, making diagnosis easier and more accessible.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study focused on healthy volunteers. Differences in air quality or equipment between settings may still cause variability that limits real-world use.
