OneView Clinical Research Software Overview

Hexoskin OneView is a clinical software platform that allows health professionals and researchers to design their own protocols and easily monitor their projects and studies.

Our community uses it to collect data from patients in occupational wellness programs, rehabilitation programs, and clinical trials.

Participants can use an app to follow a program's calendar, complete questionnaires and enter all kinds of data you need to track their progress and monitor the performance of your project.

On top of that, you'll find it easy to:

  • manage cohorts and calendars
  • monitor data quality and compliance
  • use study templates, standardized questionnaires and health reports
  • easily clone protocols to create new study arms or health programs
  • use the sizing tool to pick the right size shirt to onboard participants
  • export all data to other systems like Excel, R and SAS for biostatistics
  • the tools are available for Astroskin too!

Contact our team to see how we can support your program or study and access a free trial. We offer turnkey services for a wide range of projects, from protocol planning and design, to recruitment and study support, to biostatistics and endpoints. 

 

Hexoskin @ 2024 JP Morgan Conference

Hexoskin will be in San Francisco again this year during the 42nd Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, the largest life sciences investment event in the world.

We'll take the opportunity to meet with our clients and partners who use the Hexoskin software platform and wearables to advance our knowledge of human physiology.

We'll also present our new Hexoskin OneView platform for research and our digital biomarker pipeline in cardiology, respiratory diseases, nervous system disorders, and rare diseases.

Hexoskin @ HITLAB Innovators Summit 2023

This November at the HITLAB Innovators Summit at Columbia University in NYC we officially launched our new Hexoskin OneView platform for clinical research! For a long time we knew there was a need for better software to support digital biomarker development and clinical research with medical wearables.

We understand the needs of research organizations and clinical sites when it comes to onboarding participants, monitoring compliance and data quality.

So we did something about it.

OneView is the best solution for doing clinical research with Hexoskin and Astroskin wearables. It allows you to:

  • Manage cohorts and calendars
  • Monitor data quality and compliance
  • Use study templates, standardized questionnaires and data reports
  • Easily clone studies to create new study arms
  • Export all data to other systems like R and SAS for biostatistics

The platform also includes a mobile app for patient reported outcomes and participant tasks management.

On top of that, Hexoskin offers turnkey services for clinical trials: protocol planning and design, recruitment, study support, biostatistics and endpoints, etc.

OneView is already used today by a select group of research organizations and Pharma companies - who joined our beta program earlier this year - to run clinical trials with a decentralized or virtual component. Their feedback has been amazing and has helped us improve OneView to make it an essential research tool.

Hexoskin at Biosensors for Medical Wearables 2023 in Boston: Non-adhesive, flexible wearable sensors for pulmonary medical applications

Hexoskin's co-founder and CEO Pierre-Alexandre Fournier has been invited this year again to talk about wearable vital signs monitoring and digital biomarker development at the Biosensors for Medical Wearables Conference in Boston, this October 23rd.

Vital signs sensors traditionally used for cardiac and respiratory monitoring involve adhesives or tape to keep sensors in place on the skin. Experience has shown there's a tradeoff between monitoring duration (1 to 14 days), and adhesive agressiveness, which can lead to skin rashes or wounds.

There's now a safer and more convenient way for patients to record long-term vital signs data needed for diagnosis or digital biomarker development: smart textiles. Hexoskin users have successfully demonstrated the advantages of using a form factor that patients like. Researchers have documented it in over 200 scientific papers.

Moreover, Hexoskin biometric shirts' respiratory sensors allow continuous pulmonary measurements previously hard or impossible to collect in real-world situations, outside laboratory environments. These sensors open a new era of research on diseases that have an impact on the pulmonary function.

In his talk, Fournier will describe medical applications of smart textile sensors for patients with respiratory diseases, as well as opportunities in research in cardiology, mental health and rare diseases. He will also share unique insights into Hexoskin's experience in space medicine research aboard the International Space Station.

HITLAB Digital Health Summit 2023 - Hexoskin Video

Our CEO Pierre-Alexandre Fournier presented some of Hexoskin's efforts to solve the evidence gap for healthcare and clinical trials at Columbia University last month, and HITLAB recently made the 15 minutes video available online below.

Clinical evidence is what makes medical discoveries possible: that's how we measure safety and efficacy, and that's how we measure efficiency gains in healthcare delivery. When we lower the cost of evidence, we make care more accessible and affordable. This is an important part of our mission at Hexoskin.

In the video you'll see a few examples of our work at Hexoskin, from clinical research to AI development to human spaceflight.

The Hexoskin and Astroskin platform has been used to collect health data for over 200 scientific publications. White papers about wearable sensors applications for health monitoring of are available upon request.

Hexoskin and Halo Health to solve key challenges of clinical trials.

Hexoskin and Halo Health are announcing today a collaboration to solve key challenges in running clinical trials. Combining Hexoskin and Halo Health's technology will offer greater operational efficiency for virtual clinical trials and home monitoring, and offer tools to increase patient engagement.

These new tools will reduce the cost of collecting vital signs data for clinical trials, and will allow patients to participate in medical research from the comfort of their home.

Hexoskin smart garments and its Connected Health Platform are compatible with Halo Health solutions. The two companies will mutually promote their offering to pharmaceutical sponsors to support clinical development.

Halo Health is enabling patient-centric trials to reduce patient and site burden. Its Smart Clinical Trials solution is a digital health platform that provides Remote Patient Monitoring, Patient Engagement, and Workflow Automation. The solution includes an integrated ecosystem of clinical grade sensors and wearables to enable hybrid & virtual trials for various therapeutic areas including cardiology, respiratory and endocrinology.

Pierre-Alexandre Fournier - Chief Executive Officer at Hexoskin: “Medicine's progress depends on being able to better observe patients' outcomes. Anything we can do to lower the cost of data helps accelerate clinical development. This is something that Pharma and Biotech companies need to innovate, but most importantly this is something that we need to do to improve treatments for patients and find new cures for diseases that affect millions of people and their families.” says Pierre-Alexandre Fournier, Chief Executive Officer at Hexoskin. “Combining Halo Health's software with Hexoskin sensors and algorithms reduces the cost of collecting data in clinical trials, with greater flexibility & patient centricity.”

Hexoskin is a pioneer and leader in non-invasive vital signs sensors and remote patient monitoring solutions. Hexoskin Smart Clothing for Men, Women, and Children are clinically validated and its Connected Health Platform is used for health research in cardiology, pulmonology, psychiatry, rare diseases and many other health conditions.

Fierce Pharma: Pharma has a real-world problem, and it's the lag in its sensor adoption

Adoption of mobile and connected health tech in clinical trials is a real-world challenge for pharmaceutical companies. Our CEO Pierre-Alexandre Fournier has shared his thoughts recently about the adoption of mobile and connected health tech with Fierce Pharma.

"The industry needs to get with it now or pay for it later—literally. The reason? Sensor tech will be adopted faster at a large scale in healthcare than in pharma trials, and that means “the drugs you are developing today are going to be seen with tools that you are not using in your trials right now.”  That could cost drugmakers billions of dollars if they launch products only to find that monitoring tech turns up real-world outcomes that don’t meet payers’ standards."
