The purpose of this study is to assess subjects' perceptions of environmental conditions and their preferences, and to expose subjects to varied environmental conditions as well as to assess their perception and feedback to these conditions. Another aim of this study is to explore potential patterns, factors of influence, and factors of reference in relation to the objectively assessed quality of the imagining examination and/or the perception of the patient. Finally, another aim of this study is to explore the feasibility of innovative biofeedback response capturing methodologies and technologies to guide the design of specific clinical investigations or trials.
Tremendous technological advances have occurred in recent years that enable easily controlled lights, sound, temperature, airflow as well as sensatory experiences such as smell or vibrations. While in some fields, these technologies are readily used, their potential application within healthcare environments has not yet been studied. In this study, we want to investigate how environmental factors including light, sound, temperature, smell, and sensatory experiences such as vibration are being perceived by subjects to develop environmental strategies using those components to create a more relaxing, and comforting experience for patients prior, during and after an imaging examination and for staff working in such environments. This data that will also guide to encourage changes of patient staff facility interactions to further improve the healthcare experience and quality of imaging examinations. To get a complete set of data, we plan to include volunteer participants, patients scheduled for imaging examinations, and staff working in the healthcare environment. This study has up to three different components: A, filling out survey forms to learn more about the perception of experience factors B, participating in facility experiences that may expose subjects to different facility factors and will then assess responses using additional survey forms or electronic measurement and data capture devices and C, during an imaging study the environment experience may be altered and assessments will be done to determine how relaxed the subject remains during the imagining study and the degree of motion induced artifacts. Feedback data will be obtained through survey tools as well as available consumer grade wearable devices that can continuously capture physiological parameters such as heart rate, motion, body perspiration and muscle tension. Only participants in the patient, staff, or volunteer populations who are not receiving an MRI imaging examination will participate in utilizing the wearable devices, as the wearable devices are not compatible with the MRI system. Patients receiving a PET/CT examination will be able to utilize a wearable device. For patients scheduled for an imaging examination the findings and perception of environmental factors will be compared with the image quality of the imaging examination and the feedback responses.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Healthy volunteer population | Experimental | Healthy volunteer participants will have one of two options for participation:
|
|
| Patient population | Experimental | Patient participants will complete a survey tool and either participate in specific environmental experience testing or may be exposed to an environmental experience during the imaging examination. The imaging exam will be assessed in regard to quality factors such as motion artifacts as an indicator of being relaxed during the examination. |
|
| Staff population | Experimental | Staff participants who work in imaging-related healthcare environments will complete survey tools regarding their perception and preference of environmental factors and/or will participate in environmental experiences and provide feedback. |

| Light perception | Other | We will be using Wi-Fi/IP programmable LED lighting systems that will replace conventional lighting systems and may be in canned lights, spot lights, light chains or table lights. These lighting systems can be fully controlled by web based applications on smart phones tablets and computer systems and can be combined with input systems such as switches, motion detection or voice activated. Differences in lighting perception will be explored by varying lighting color and brightness. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Mood, Physiological State - Heart Rate | Participants' mood will be assessed via measurements of participants' heart rate | Participants may complete physiological measurements through study completion, on average 1 year. |
| Mood, Physiological State - Body Temperature | Participants' mood will be assessed via participants' body temperature | Participants may complete physiological measurements through study completion, on average 1 year. |
| Mood, Self-Report | Participants' mood will be assessed via self report in surveys | Participants may complete surveys through study completion, on average 1 year. |
| Environmental preference | Participants will self-report their preferences for different light, sound, smell, and vibration sensations | Participants may complete surveys through study completion, on average 1 year. |
| Feasibility of the use of voice activation within the imaging environment | We are observing how practical and beneficial it is to use voice activation technologies such as Amazon Echo, Google home or similar devices within the imaging environment. For instance, we will observe how user-friendly, time-consuming, etc. the use of voice activation technology is within an imaging setting for assessing participant preferences. | We will be observing the feasibility of voice activation through study completion, on average 1 year. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Temperature | We will use infrared detector camera technology to assess the skin temperature of subjects at different body regions and changes during the observational period. This will also be used to determine the temperature of the surroundings as well, for example, to determine the relative temperature of the chair and the imaging bed. Infrared cameras installed alongside the normal surveillance cameras to monitor patients during the imaging examination may also be used to monitor the temperature of the surroundings as well as the body to determine if that may be the reason for motion. |

| Sound perception | Other | We will be using Wi-Fi/Bluetooth addressable sound systems that will be linked with sound sources such as media players on smart devices or computer systems. Differences in sound perception will be explored by varying sound types (i.e. different music types, ambient noise, etc.). |
|
| Smell perception | Other | We will explore the use of consumer grade ventilation systems that can be equipped to distribute packaged scents. Differences in smell perception will be explored by varying the types of scents. |
|
| Vibration perception | Other | We will explore the use of chairs or blankets that enable subjects to perceive vibrations. An initial implementation will be the use of on relaxing/massage chair that enables the experience of vibration sensation in the back or leg area. We may use also potentially vibration blankets in the arm or neck area. Differences in vibration perception will be explored by varying the location, frequency, etc. of vibrations with the subject being placed in a chair on an imaging table/bed. |
|
| Voice activation | Other | We will explore the use and linkage of voice activation system such as Amazon Echo, Google home or similar devices. Some participants may be asked to use voice activations to verbally select and/or change the environmental settings according to their preferences. We are evaluating the feasibility of voice activation with the imaging environment. |
|
| Temperature of the environment and of each participant may be monitored from the time the participant begins the environmental experience until the participant completes study procedures, up to roughly 1 hour |
| Motion | We will use short wave radar to perform positional monitoring of subjects during the observational period. This short-wave radar will be used as a means to assess motion and detect subject movement in a room that we hope to correlate to their level of comfort and relaxation. Short wave radar is also technically able to detect very miniscule motion including blood flow and pulse rate, which would allow us to move away from wearable devices to remote sensing devices further hoping to increase patient comfort. No short wave radar devices will be used during the imaging examination. | Motion of each participant may be monitored from the time the participant begins the environmental experience until the participant completes study procedures, up to roughly 1 hour |
| Quality of imaging study | Patient participants who have given authorization for a blinded review of their imaging study will have their imaging study reviewed on a radiological image review workstation and assessed by an experienced reader of imaging studies in regard to the presence and severity of artifacts. Those findings will be recorded both in a structured and free text form using a survey tool. We anticipate that in this exploratory study observations will be made that will lead to the need to further detail and/or refine structured recording of the findings. | Image quality will be assessed after SOC images are collected from patient participants through study completion, on average 1 year. |
