Assessment of Remote Vital Signs for Telemedicine Applications (NCT04820387)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this study is to determine whether vital signs can be extracted from video. A secondary purpose is to create a database, including raw video, of "ground truth" physiological data on human subjects in order to test current and/or future approaches developed to extract vital signs from video. This research may have an immediate impact on not only the assessment of risk for COVID-19 but also may provide a significant technological enhancement to Johns Hopkins Medicine's telemedicine capabilities.
