Study Summary
This trial will test a new sensor to see if it can accurately measure hydration levels in patients with sickle cell disease. The sensor could be used to help guide hydration therapy for these patients.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals aged 12 or older who have been diagnosed with Sickle Cell Disease, including various genotypes like SS, SC, and others. Participants must be able to give legal consent to all study procedures. Those under 12 or currently in other clinical trials for experimental therapies cannot join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing a new skin hydration sensor designed to accurately assess hydration levels in patients with Sickle Cell Disease. The goal is to see if this sensor can work as an easy-to-use device at the point of care and help guide proper hydration therapy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves a non-invasive skin hydration sensor, there are no direct side effects expected from its use. However, any discomfort or issues related to wearing the device will be monitored.
