[Shimmer-users] Shimmer sensors and patient consent

[Behnood Gholami]

Dear Shimmer Users,

We are planning to use Shimmer sensors for data collection in an intensive
care unit as part of a research study. The Shimmer sensors are considered
investigational devices in the US and they come with a number of warnings
in the manual (e.g., risk of electrical shock, risk of sustaining burn as a
result of failure etc.).

I am trying to reach researchers who have used Shimmer in a clinical
setting and specifically ask them regarding the way they dealt with patient
consent forms in light of the warnings that are listed in the manual.

Thank you.

Best,
Behnood
