ECS®, Evidence Capture SystemCapture layer · Module 05

Connected devices

Objects that measure, in dialogue with ECS®.

Wearables, biosensors and home devices stream vitals, adherence and behavioural signals into ECS®; ECS® pushes back thresholds, prompts and quiet reminders. Device data is contextualised against protocol thresholds and participant guidance is nudged accordingly, all inside the same audit trail.

How it works

A dialogue with the participant.

Devices push in; ECS® pushes back, inside the same audit trail, framed by ISO 14155 and the applicable MDR/IVDR class of each device.

In, from device
  • Wearables

    Activity, sleep, HR, SpO₂.

  • Biosensors

    CGM, ECG, respiratory, temperature.

  • Home diagnostics

    Spirometry, BP, pulse-ox, weight.

  • Smart pillbox

    Dose opened, missed, late.

Core
ECS®
LucaH®®
Out, to participant
  • Thresholds

    Protocol-defined windows and alerts.

  • Prompts

    Just-in-time nudges via LucaH®.

  • Guidance

    Study-team escalation when needed.

  • Reminders

    Quiet, snoozable, translatable.

What it does

Purpose-built, module by module.

Wearables

Consumer and clinical-grade wearables, activity, sleep, heart-rate, SpO₂, streamed into ECS® against protocol-defined windows and thresholds.

Biosensors

Continuous glucose, ECG patches, respiratory and temperature sensors, signals flow into structured, analysis-ready fields.

Smart pillbox

Adherence captured objectively, dose opened, dose missed, dose late, with prompts back to LucaH® before a protocol deviation forms.

Home diagnostics

Home-use diagnostic devices (spirometry, BP cuffs, pulse-oximeters, weight scales) integrated with consented context and QC checks.

Continuous monitoring

Signals sampled at the cadence the protocol requires, with clinical-decision-support thresholds routed to the right investigator.

Bluetooth / BLE

Standards-based pairing (BLE, HL7 FHIR device profiles), devices provisioned to each participant via LucaH®.

Two-way dialogue

Devices push data in; ECS® pushes back thresholds, reminders and behavioural nudges, closing the loop inside the same workflow.

BYOD & provisioned

Bring-your-own-device where the protocol allows; study-provisioned hardware where the protocol requires it. Same audit trail either way.

Framed by

Regulatory & standards frame.

The regulatory and standards backdrop this module is designed against.

ISO 14155

Clinical investigations of medical devices for human subjects.

MDR / IVDR

Device class recognised per protocol, CE and UKCA declarations kept in eTMF.

HL7 FHIR Device profile

Standardised device identity, provisioning and pairing metadata.

BLE / Bluetooth SIG

Standards-based pairing to hardware provisioned to each participant.

IEC 62443 / MDCG 2019-16

Cybersecurity guidance for medical devices and connected accessories.

EU AI Act

Where AI interprets device signals, transparency and human oversight apply.

Built to be handed to a regulator, with regional data residency in the sponsor's jurisdiction.
