New Non-Invasive devices aim to spot hidden blood vessel damage
NCT ID NCT07604922
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will test two new non-invasive devices (HEMI and SPG-NINOX) that measure small blood vessel function in 165 adults. Participants include healthy volunteers and people with high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or chronic kidney disease. The goal is to see if these devices can detect early blood vessel changes linked to these conditions, without any needles or procedures.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could lead to a simple, non-invasive way to detect early blood vessel damage in people with kidney disease, diabetes, or high blood pressure.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early observational study, not a treatment trial. The devices are still investigational, and results may not lead to a widely available test.
