Summary

The aim of the study is to investigate disease in volunteers deliberately infected with influenza A(H3N2), including biological markers of inflammation and immune response, and changes in physiological parameters including heart rate, respiratory rate, physical activity, oxygen saturation and electrocardiographic data during the onset of influenza infection. Ultimately, this may lead to prediction of symptomatic disease at an earlier stage to allow more effective interventions. The experimental medicine study design will involve human influenza infection challenge, whereby volunteers will be inoculated with influenza virus and monitored in hospital for 10 days as they develop and get better from flu. Continuously-monitoring wearable physiological sensors will be given to the participants 7 days before this and worn continuously until the end of the flu infection.

Conditions

  • Influenza A H3N2

Interventions

DEVICE

Lumee Oxygen Platform

Two sensors will be inserted (one in the skin fo the upper arm and one on the side of the chest). A wireless patch reader is placed on top of the skin over the area where the sensor has been placed to measure local oxygen content.
