Brief summary (registry, in English)

Multi-center, comparative, non-significant risk adaptive study with retrospective controls. After providing informed consent and being screened for eligibility, intervention subjects will be prescribed and provided an appropriately sized Tango Belt. The subject must demonstrate a minimum of 64% adherence to the use of the Tango Belt within 14 days of initiation to fully enroll in the study. Upon demonstration of at least minimum adherence, the subject will be provided the Tango Belt to wear continuously for at least 6 months, except during bathing, device charging, and as deemed by clinical staff. The study will investigate the safety and effectiveness of the Tango Belt with the primary and secondary endpoints being taken every 3 months and at the end of the study run time from the electronic medical record. Additionally, ancillary endpoints on adverse events and device performance will be gathered.
