Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This is a pivotal validation study of the Saiiv wearable vital signs monitor and App. The Saiiv wearable vita signs monitor is a waist belt worn around the chest and upper abdominal region. Validation of cardiac and respiratory vital signs will be conducted against gold standard TGA approved devices in 40 healthy volunteers and 40 ventilated patients in ICU.

Validation will involve healthy volunteers having vital signs assessed laying down, sitting and during light activity. ICU patients will wear the device and vital signs will be monitored. ICU participants will not be required to complete any tasks. Vital signs monitoring will be conducted by a study coordinator and healthcare worker (nurse or doctor).

Health volunteers will be monitored in-clinic over a 2 hour period and if consented will take the study device home and wear it for 2 weeks (minimum of 2-hours/day). They will then return to the research site and conduct a second 2-hour in-clinic monitoring study after which they will be exited form the study. ICU participants will be fitted with a study monitoring device in ICU and monitored for a two-hour period after which they will be exited form the study.

Participants will not be required to interact with the App during the validation (in-clinic) assessments. Healthy volunteers who consent to the home assessment will download a copy of the App on their smart phone and will be able to interact with the App.

The study will occur in the hospital/ward setting and in ICU.

Statistical methods / analysis
The agreement between vital signs, measured by the study monitoring device and a gold standard, will be assessed by Lin’s concordance correlation coefficient (CCC). It is expected that CCC will be around 0.95 between paired data (study monitoring device vs gold standard), with the lower side of the 95% confidence interval (CI) more than 0.85. With a probability of 90% (power) to obtain the 95% CI, a sample size of 34 (i.e. 34 paired data) is needed in Arm 1 and Arm 2 (i.e. total of 68 participants). To account for a drop out of 20%, a sample size of 41 is needed in each arm (i.e. total of 82 participants).
