Brief Title: Feasibility of Monitoring Health Data in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Chemotherapy
Official Title: Continuous Monitoring of Health Data With a Wearable Device in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Chemotherapy for Cancer - a Feasibility Pilot Study
Study ID: NCT04134429
Brief Summary: In this pilot study the feasibility of continous monitoring of health data with a small, on-skin wearable device (the EverionĀ®, by Biovotion, Zurich) in pediatric patients under chemotherapy for cancer, is studied. Feasibility is assessed by the number of patients wearing the device on seven consecutive days for at least 18h/day, what will be measured by monitored heart rate. Study duration for each participant is 14 days.
Detailed Description: No study has proved feasibility of continuous monitoring of health data with a small wearable device such as the device EverionĀ® in pediatric patients. It is not known if children tolerate the device and if data quality sustains with smaller arm circumferences or when worn on the upper leg. Neither is it known if parents and/or patients can and are willing to handle the device in ambulant setting. Therefore, this pilot study assesses the feasibility of continous monitoring of health data with a small, on-skin wearable device (the EverionĀ®, by Biovotion, Zurich) in pediatric patients under chemotherapy for cancer.
