Biospecimen Analysis in Detecting Chemical Concentrations in Patients With Chronic or Infectious Diseases Receiving Meditations
Recruiting now
Conditions studied: Chronic Disease, Infectious Disorder
In brief
This trial collects and analyzes sweat and saliva samples compared to blood in detecting chemical concentrations in the body in patients with chronic or infectious diseases receiving medications. Wearable sweat sensors are capable of monitoring electrolytes and metabolites (sodium, potassium, glucose, lactate, etc.) for health monitoring and disease diagnosis. Designing wearable sweat sensors capable of providing information regarding drug administration may be challenging due to ultralow concentrations in biofluids. This trial seeks to determine if the use of a smart wristband can accurately measure the levels of chemicals and substances in sweat.
