Study summary

The main goal of this study is to validate the accuracy of the body position detection by non-invasive wearable monitors (Skiin garments, Myant Medical Corp) during sleep in pregnant participants. This is a first step towards examining the association between maternal sleep position and fetal growth.

Read the detailed description

Individuals who are eligible to the study and provided consent to participate will be asked to:

  1. Wear the Skiin Garment system for the duration of their time in the hospital (minimum 1 nights until they are discharged from hospital).
  2. Complete a study completion questionnaire about their experience with the device and the study.

The Skiin Garment system is composed by biosensing garments presented in different form factors (bra, chest band, or underwear). It captures physiological metrics and relay information from a pod to local hub with Bluetooth.

The true body position will be obtained using visual observations and cameras.

Groups and cohorts

  • Sleep position detection

    Accuracy of Skiin Garment system for detecting sleep position of pregnant womem.

    Device: Skiin Garment system

Interventions

  • DeviceSkiin Garment system

    Individuals will be asked to wear a Skiin Garment system for the duration of their hospitalization (minimum one day).The system will collect accelerometer, ECG, temperature, heart rate, steps and sleep metrics data if enable. Then, they will be asked to answer a questionnaire about their experiences with the device and the study.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Accuracy of Skiin Garment system for detecting sleep position of pregnant women

    Sleep position will be identified through the Skiin Garment system via accelerometry, and compared to visual confirmation of sleep position.

    Time frame: Recorded during the night, during 6 to 8 hours.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Questionnaire on wearable device invasiveness and satisfaction

    Pregnant women will be asked to answer a questionnaire at the end of their participation in the study. It contains questions related to patients' experience wearing the Skiin Garment system, including invasiveness and satisfaction. This is an ad-hoc questionnaire titled "SPV_Satisfaction_Questionnaire_v1_2023-04-03" containing 20 questions: 14 questions use a Likert scale design, 3 questions are single choice answer, and 3 questions are open-ended questions. Results are not reported as a total score on a scale but descriptive statistics will be used individually per question.

    Time frame: One time point, on the morning after one night wearing the Skiin Garment system

  2. Participant recruitment rate

    Recruitment rate will be calculated as the number of participants who consent to participant divided by the number of participants who consent to be contacted.

    Time frame: From the beginning to the end of the recruitment, up to 1 year.

  3. Participant retention rate

    The retention rate will be calculated as the number of participants who remain in the study divided by the number of participants who initially consent to participate.

    Time frame: From the beginning to the end of participation, up to 1 year.
