New sweat patch could make cystic fibrosis testing easier
NCT ID NCT07414810
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will test a new device called the micro Sweat Test Patch (µSTP) that measures chloride levels in sweat to help diagnose and monitor cystic fibrosis (CF). Researchers will compare the new patch to the standard sweat test in 300 newborns, children, and adults with CF. The goal is to see if the patch is accurate and causes less skin irritation.
