A Novel Wearable Digital Biomarker for Detecting Changes in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Condition
Condition(s) studied
Study summary
To measure the effectiveness of a Remote Patient Monitoring solution based on the use of a smart insole wearable device (and associated smart phone app), for monitoring MS patients' condition on a day-to-day basis. The main focus is the objective measurement of gait, given that 75% of people with MS display clinically significant gait impairments. Initial gait lab "gold standard" data indicate that the Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based digital biomarker will prove to be highly effective at detecting changes in the MS patient's condition.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Participant Adherence — 6 months
To measure participant adherence, with respect to the wearable smart insoles and the associated smart phone app, for the purpose of MS disease monitoring. Adherence is defined as the collection by the participant of 15-minute walking samples 3x per week using the smart insoles and the associated smart phone app. Adherence will be assessed by calculating the number of tasks completed divided by the number of tasks prompted. \> 80% is deemed high adherence. - Clinician Acceptance — 6 months
To measure clinician acceptance of the solution, by confirming that the results are readily interpretable and useful to the clinician. Specifically, we will measure the satisfaction of clinicians using a 5-point Likert scale, as follows: Very satisfied, Satisfied, Neither satisfied nor dissatisfied, Dissatisfied, and Very dissatisfied.
