imPulse™ Una Infrasound-to-ultrasound E-stethoscope

imPulse™ Una Infrasound-to-ultrasound E-stethoscope 2-minute to Result COVID-19 Self-directed & Point-of-care Screening Test

This study generates robust, uniform clinical data across emerging COVID-19 strains to train ML/AI algorithms of the Sponsor's imPulse™ Una infrasound-to-ultrasound e-stethoscope for digital diagnostic feature synthesis of asymptomatic and symptomatic COVID-19 digital biosignatures for rapid and accurate adult and child mass screening.

For the next few years or more, the planet probably won't have enough vaccine for everyone. Even as countries with large COVID-19 vaccination programs start pushing to resume travel and trade:

We will not know who is vaccinated and who is not . We will not know who is an (a)symptomatic COVID-19 carrier and who is not.

Because of this, the global community will remain in various stages of masking, social distancing, lock-down, and limited congregation because of cyclical COVID-19 spikes and people will continue to feel unsafe and afraid as novel COVID-19 variants appear and disappear.

This large-scale, multi-site, multi-national study is informed by a completed pilot study at Johns Hopkins- NCT04556149. This study is designed to validate the ability of the imPulse™ Una infrasound-to-ultrasound e-stethoscope to rapidly and accurately screen outpatients with and without confirmed COVID-19 with sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value matching (PPA >95%) for early, accurate, and rapid, self-directed and point-of-care diagnosis of COVID-19 in areas still lagging in access to vaccines.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Able to understand and willingness to comply with study procedures
• Inpatient Cases - hospitalized patients with positive COVID-19 PCR test, collected from a respiratory sample within the last 7 days, AND pulmonary symptoms within 72 hours of enrollment
• Outpatient Cases - participant being screened for COVID-19 with positive COVID-19 PCR test respiratory sample Controls - Outpatients with negative COVID-19 PCR test respiratory sample and no pulmonary diagnosis or symptoms Cases or Control not able to sit or stand will be allowed to participate in just the parts of the staircase exam they're capable of doing.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Assisted ventilation, including high flow nasal cannula, or ventilator support
• Unable to comply with study procedures, defined at investigator's discretion
• Participants with any visible skin infections or open wounds in areas where the imPulse™ Una device would be applied
