A Comparative Wear Test of Two Adhesives on the Unilect ™ Biotab Short Term Monitoring Electrode
- Conditions
- Healthy Subjects
- Interventions
- Device: Marketed electrodeDevice: Modified "test" electrode
- Registration Number
- NCT01590368
- Lead Sponsor
- ConvaTec Inc.
- Brief Summary
It is hypothesised that the adhesion of electrodes and acceptability of the Electrocardiogram (ECG) trace is comparable between the two groups (marketed and test products) after 30 minutes (the intended period of use) of the electrodes.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Product Performance : Remain in place 30 minutes Ability to remain in place for a duration of 30 minutes (as per intended use)
Product Performance: Perform 30 minutes Ability of the electrodes to perform after a duration of 30 minutes of wear (ECG tracing) as per intended use.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Safety: Adverse Events 2 days Safety will be evaluated by the nature and frequency of adverse events, (including condition of the skin under the electrodes using the Skin Irritation Scale (Appendix 4)) and ease of removal
Skin Rating 2 days Condition of the skin under the electrodes using the Skin Irritation Scale
