Study summary

This clinical study evaluates an upper limb measurement device designed to measure upper limb volume. The study will compare measurements obtained using the upper limb measurement device with those obtained using the water displacement method. The study will assess the effectiveness, accuracy, consistency, and measurement time of the device, as well as its safety and usability. Approximately 220 participants will be enrolled, including primarily patients who have undergone breast cancer treatment and a small proportion of healthy participants. Each participant will undergo upper limb volume measurements using both methods, with the measurement order randomized.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Participants aged 18 to 70 years.
  • Participants will primarily be patients who have undergone breast cancer surgery; healthy volunteers will account for no more than 20% of the total study population.
  • Participants whose upper limb circumference, measured manually at the wrist crease and elbow crease using a non-elastic measuring tape, meets the distribution requirements within the device's linear measurement range of 11 to 56 cm.
  • Participants who are willing and able to provide written .

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants with infectious skin lesions or skin diseases, such as psoriasis or eczema.
  • Participants with open wounds, abrasions, or active bleeding of the upper limb.
  • Participants who are unable to maintain a fixed and stable position during the measurement procedure.
  • Participants with an upper limb length, measured from the fingertip to the axilla using a non-elastic measuring tape, of less than 50 cm or greater than 80 cm.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Upper Limb Volume Measurement

    Participants underwent upper limb volume measurements using both the investigational upper limb measurement device and the reference water displacement method. Each upper limb was measured three times using each method, and the mean of the three measurements was used for comparison. The order of the two measurement methods was randomized. The measurements were performed independently by separate study personnel to minimize potential measurement bias.

    Device: Upper Limb Measurement Device

Interventions

  • DeviceUpper Limb Measurement Device

    The investigational upper limb measurement device (model ULMS-RKRM201) is a non-invasive automated device designed to measure upper limb circumference and volume. During measurement, the participant places the hand and upper arm in designated positions within the acquisition unit. Cameras capture images of the upper limb, and software algorithms automatically identify the wrist and elbow and calculate upper limb circumference and volume. The device generates an automated measurement report, and a single measurement of one upper limb is completed within 60 seconds.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Bland-Altman Limits of Agreement for Upper Limb Volume Measurements Between the Investigational Device and the Water Displacement Method

    Each upper limb will be measured three times using both the investigational device and the water displacement method. The mean measurements will be compared using Bland-Altman analysis to assess agreement between the two methods.

    Time frame: Day 1

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants Experiencing Device-Related Adverse Events

    The number and percentage of participants experiencing adverse events related to the investigational upper limb measurement device will be recorded during the measurement procedure on Day 1.

    Time frame: Day 1

  2. Number of Investigational Device Malfunctions or Deficiencies

    The total number of malfunctions or deficiencies involving the investigational upper limb measurement device will be recorded throughout the clinical study, including failures in data acquisition, quality control failures, and other device-related technical problems. The frequency and types of device malfunctions or deficiencies will be summarized.

    Time frame: Through study completion, approximately 6 months

1 registry update since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Jun 2025 to primary completion in Sep 2025, 3 months.

Of 2,661 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Breast Neoplasms, half reached primary completion within 33 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 16 and three quarters within 66. This study's 3 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 2,771 studies reached it within 33 months; a quarter within 15 and three quarters within 66.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
