NCT ID NCT07430605

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a wearable patch called WearME-Pro that tracks lung function in people with COPD during daily life. Over 10 months, 82 adults will use the patch at home and compare its readings to a standard handheld spirometer. The goal is to see if the patch is accurate, easy to use, and reliable for remote monitoring.

Active substance

WearME-Pro Patch System (wearable device)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could provide a convenient way for people with COPD to monitor their lung function at home without frequent clinic visits.

What could go wrong

This is an early-stage study with only 82 participants, and the patch readings are investigational—not yet proven to replace standard spirometry. The device may be less accurate or harder to use than expected.
