Study type | Observational |
The overarching aim of this study is to assess the validity of the iButton®, a dual temperature and humidity sensing device (DS1923; Maxim IntegratedTM), as an objective method to assess hot flash incidence and dynamics in both a real world (ambulatory) and controlled (laboratory) setting. This study will test the overarching hypothesis that both self-report hot flashes in both an ambulatory and laboratory setting will correlate (confirm) the temperature and humidity sensing observed via the iButton® technology.

Primary | Skin temperature (via iButton®) | Skin temperatures will be continually monitored at 2 sites: the sternum (chest) and forearm, using iButton® technology during a single hot flash that is stimulated at the laboratory visit. | 2 hours | |
Secondary | Skin temperature (via BIOPAC) | Skin temperatures will be continually monitored at 5 sites: the mid-thigh, sternum (chest), forearm, mid-biceps, and scapula, during a single hot flash that is stimulated at the laboratory visit. | 2 hours | |
Secondary | Skin blood flow (via laser-Doppler flowmetry) | Skin blood flow will be measured continuously using a laser Doppler flowmeter on the sternum with the associated software (Perimed, Stockholm, Sweden) during a single hot flash that is stimulated at the laboratory visit. | 2 hours | |
Secondary | Core temperature (via pill telemetry) | Core temperature will be measured from an ingestible pill telemetry system (HTI Technologies; Palmetto, FL) during a single hot flash that is stimulated at the laboratory visit. | 2 hours | |
Secondary | Sweat rate (via ventilated capsule) | Sweat rates of the sternum and forearm will be measured using ventilated capsules secured with surgical adhesive during a single hot flash that is stimulated at the laboratory visit. | 2 hours |
