Testing a wearable device to measure body hydration levels
This study tests a wearable wrist device that measures hydration by sensing blood flow in your skin. Researchers will monitor how well it works when you're dehydrated on purpose, which could help develop better ways to track hydration for health and fitness.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 45 years old
- You can speak, read, and write English fluently
- You are willing to wear a wrist device for the duration of the study
- You can follow strict rules: fasting overnight, eating the same food before visits, avoiding vigorous exercise and alcohol for 24 hours before each visit
- You are willing to restrict fluids on purpose to become dehydrated as part of the study
- You are not taking medications or have health conditions that would be worsened by fluid restriction or interfere with the study

This study tests a smartphone app that helps older adults track how much water they drink. The goal is to see if using the app improves their knowledge about hydration and encourages healthier drinking habits.
This study tests whether the Gatorade Sports Science Institute (GSSI) Labs App can help track hydration. You will drink water and use the app with your activity tracker to see if it works well in daily life.
This trial tests a wearable device that checks for dehydration in older adults who come to the emergency room. If you are being treated for dehydration, the device might help doctors monitor your condition more easily.
This trial tests a wearable sensor that tracks your body's fluid levels to help doctors manage dehydration while you're in the hospital.
This trial tests and “validates” how well wearable sensors work on the skin in healthy adults. It may help researchers build safer, more reliable wearables—but you would need healthy skin and the ability to do some moderate exercise during the study.
This trial tests a new wrist device that takes blood pressure readings regularly. The results are compared between when you first use it and a week later.
