A Clinical Analysis of Bella Blankets® Protective Coverlets

This study will collect and compare clinical image quality measurements of randomly scheduled, asymptomatic, screening mammography patients, right breast mammogram performed with and without the use of Bella Blankets protective coverlets on the receptor plate.

The measurements will determine if the use of Bella Blankets protective coverlets increases the mammogram's clinical image quality and if Bella Blankets protective coverlets can be used as an aid for EQUIP compliance.

In addition, a patient satisfaction survey will be conducted with participants to determine if the use of Bella Blankets protective coverlets improves patient satisfaction.

Treatment and study plan

Bella Blankets protective coverlets

Device

Bella Blankets protective coverlets is a Class II 510(k) Cleared (2008) single-use, adhering, non-woven fabric sheet applied to the mammography equipment receptor plate to provide a more comfortable mammogram.

Primary outcomes

  1. Clinical Image Quality (CIQ) Outcomes of a Participant's Right Breast Mammogram Performed with Bella Blankets Protective Coverlets on the Receptor Plate to a Bare Receptor Plate.

    Time frame: Through the completion of 100 participants; approximately 4 months

    Comparison of the Clinical Image Quality (CIQ) analytics, automatically captured by VolparaEnterprise, for the participant's right breast mammogram performed on a receptor plate with Bella Blankets protective coverlets to the same right breast mammogram performed on a bare receptor plate during the same screening mammogram visit.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Patient Satisfaction Survey

    Time frame: Through the completion of 100 participants; approximately 4 months

    A questionnaire completed by the participant after their mammogram and prior to exit. The one-page questionnaire requires the participant answers each question by selecting one Likert Scale option about their experience with the use and without the use of Bella Blankets protective coverlets.

Other outcomes

  1. Assessment as an Aid to Achieve Standards for Mammogram EQUIP Compliance Measurements.

    Time frame: At the completion of 100 participants; approximately 4 months from study initiation

    An assessment by the Principal Investigator,based on CIQ results and the FDA CIQ EQUIP standards, determining if Bella Blankets protective coverlets can be used by technologists to aid in achieving EQUIP compliance measurements in a mammogram.
