Clinical Trial Summary

Neospot device is a 5-in-1 wearable vital signs monitor designed to measure temperature, blood pressure, pulse rate (PR), respiratory rate (RR) and blood oxygen saturation (SPO2). We propose to study the experiences of patients and nurses regarding spot measurement of vital signs at the outpatient department in primary care facilities in Kenya. The study aims to investigate the capability, opportunity, and motivation of nurses to use the Neospot device for vital signs measurement in level 3 facilities in Kenya by validating the accuracy of the Neospot and assessing the experience of patients while using the Neospot, the study also aims to assess the experiences of nurses as they use the Neospot and determine how the Neospot affects their workflow.
