Brief Summary:
Exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO) is a condition in which the larynx, or voice box, narrows during high-intensity exercise, and is often mis-diagnosed. A test called a Continuous Laryngoscopy during Exercise (CLE) test can be performed, where a flexible camera is inserted through the nose and positioned at the back of the throat. While the patient exercises, the camera image can be used to identify the presence of EILO.
During the CLE test it is important that the part of the camera that remains outside the body is held securely in position near the forehead so that a clear and stable image is obtained using a headgear to secure the camera to the patient's head.
There are no headgears available on the market, so we have designed and manufactured one called HALOS (Headgear Accessory for Exercise-Induced Laryngeal Obstruction Studies).
This study is to ensure that HALOS is suitable for use, and to check we have understood and minimised the risks associated with the headgear. The headgear can then be used routinely within the Trust, improving the care that offered to patients.
We will recruit 30 male or female participants who need to undergo a CLE test. The study will be conducted at Broadgreen Hospital, Liverpool, UK. Before the CLE test, participants will attend a screening appointment to discuss the procedure. There will be no follow-up appointments.
During the CLE test, the participants will wear the HALOS headgear while exercising, and the clinician will monitor the image from the camera for signs of EILO. After the test, participants will be asked how tolerable the headgear was, and if they have any concerns about any aspect of it. The clinician will also record how clear and stable the camera image was, how easy it was to use, and any concerns about any aspect of it.
