Study Evaluating Flexitouch Plus With Connectivity on Compliance in 30 Patients With Breast Cancer-Related Lymphedema.

Breast Cancer Lymphedema Clinical Trial

Official title: A Feasibility Study Evaluating the Impact Flexitouch Plus With Connectivity Has on Compliance in Patients With Breast Cancer-Related Lymphedema (BCRL)

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of using the Flexitouch Plus with Cellular Connectivity (FT-CC) to monitor device use data to determine if reminders to patients impact compliance, and to identify the impact device compliance has on arm girth, quality of life (QOL), and symptom assessment.

Clinical Trial Description

This is a multi-center, on label, prospective, randomized, two-arm feasibility study that plans to enroll 30 female subjects in the United States. In an effort to reduce potential exposure to COVID-19, all study assessments are intended to be performed in a contactless manner (i.e., telephone, video conference, etc). If a subject passes the initial screening requirements via medical history and expresses interest in the study an informed consent form will be provided to them. Once consent has been obtained they will undergo a baseline visit where they will be randomized to one of two treatment groups: PASSIVE FT-CC (text messages reminders will not be sent to subjects) and ACTIVE FT-CC (text messages reminders will be sent if subject does not use the device for 2 consecutive days). Randomization was incorporated into the study to determine if ACTIVE FT-CC affects device use. A total of 2 follow-up visits will be conducted over a 60-day period. ;
