ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new way to measure important health signals like heart rate, breathing rate, and blood pressure using a special software called Shen.AI. The goal is to see how accurately this technology can monitor these vital signs without needing to touch the patient—this is called contactless measurement. This could be useful for people who need regular health checks but prefer a more convenient method.

To participate in the study, you need to be at least 18 years old, be able to read and write in Polish or English, and comfortably use a mobile device or laptop. You also need to be able to understand the study instructions and give your consent to join. However, there are some health conditions that would exclude you from participating, such as certain heart or lung problems, pregnancy, or extensive facial injuries. If you qualify, you can expect to complete some simple tasks using the technology while following the guidance of the study team. This trial is not yet recruiting participants, so keep an eye out for updates if you're interested!
