Validation of a Magnetic Sensor in Arterial Flow Recording, Compared With the Reference Method, at Various Peripheral Arterial Sites

Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
Lower Extremity Artery Disease
Interventions
Device: Evaluation by magnetic sensor
Registration Number
NCT06274697
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Montpellier
Brief Summary

The measurement of magnetic fields emitted by cardiac activity has already been studied in magneto-cardiography. To date, however, this technology has never been evaluated in the peripheral circulation.

The magnetic susceptibility of iron in the circulating blood and the ionic currents in the blood stream generate a very weak induced magnetic current, which can be detected by the micro-sensor of the prototype investigators wish to study.

Proving the validity of this prototype would make it a new diagnostic and even prognostic tool, non-invasive, less costly and more accessible than Doppler for screening peripheral arterial disease.

GroupInterventionDescription
Magnetic sensorEvaluation by magnetic sensorThe CapMagic device is a small magnetic sensor, whose technology is derived from magnetocardiography, with a very weak field identical to that of a refrigerator magnet, which is placed on the foot or toe to record curves reflecting the state of the arterial network. It does not require direct skin contact.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Correlation of the two curve amplitudes (y) versus time (x) between the signal recording obtained by the CapMagic prototype on the radial artery and the pulsed echo-Doppler recording on the radial arteryOn day 1

Correlation of the two curve amplitudes (y) versus time (x) between the signal recording obtained by the CapMagic prototype on the radial artery and the pulsed echo-Doppler recording on the radial artery, in adult patients with or without AOMI in hospital.

The result is expressed by a Spearman correlation coefficient ranging from -1 to 1, with 0 corresponding to no correlation and 1 corresponding to a perfect positive correlation

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Correlation of the maximum acceleration of systolic rise between the signal recording obtained by the CapMagic prototype and the pulsed echo-Doppler recordingOn day 1

The maximum acceleration of systolic rise (cm/s2) calculated from the Doppler or CapMagic curves.

Correlations of the two curve amplitudes (y) versus time (x) between the signal recording obtained by the CapMagic prototype and the pulsed echo-Doppler recording, measured on the plantar artery on one side and on the pulpal artery on the otherOn day 1

Correlations of the two curve amplitudes (y) versus time (x) between the signal recording obtained by the CapMagic prototype and the pulsed echo-Doppler recording, measured on the plantar artery on one side and on the pulpal artery on the other, in adult patients with or without LEAD in hospital.

The result is expressed by a Spearman correlation coefficient ranging from -1 to 1, with 0 corresponding to no correlation and 1 corresponding to a perfect positive correlation

Correlation of the Pulsatility index (or Gosling Pulsatility index) between the signal recording obtained by the CapMagic prototype and the pulsed echo-Doppler recordingOn day 1

IP=P/M where P=maximum amplitude of the trace (from highest positive value, i.e. peak systolic, to lowest value) and M=average circulatory velocity, averaged over the entire cardiac cycle. Calculated from the Doppler or CapMagic curves.

Correlation of the Systolic rise time (SRT) between the signal recording obtained by the CapMagic prototype and the pulsed echo-Doppler recordingOn day 1

Systolic rise time (SRT), (ms) : the time between the foot and the peak of the pulse wave. Calculated from the Doppler or CapMagic curves.

Correlation of the Systolic peak between the signal recording obtained by the CapMagic prototype and the pulsed echo-Doppler recordingOn day 1

Systolic peak, Measured in cm/s or mV: Peak height in systole. Calculated from the Doppler or CapMagic curves.

Correlation of Presence of critical ischemia measured by the CapMagic prototype and the pulsed echo-Doppler recordingOn day 1

critical ischemia is defined by systolic pressure at toe \< 30 mmHg or ankle \< 50mmHg, or diagnosis of critical ischemia retained by the team in the impossibility of obtaining pressure measurements
