Study Summary

This trial is testing a 3-point tracking device to see if it can help guide respiratory support interventions by providing information on thoracoabdominal asynchrony (TAA).

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and teenagers from 28 days to 17 years old, both with and without respiratory distress. It's not suitable for those who have injuries or conditions that would interfere with attaching a motion-sensing device to their chest and abdomen.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing a new device designed to monitor thoracoabdominal asynchrony (TAA) - when the chest and belly don't move in sync during breathing, which can indicate respiratory distress. The goal is to see if this device can help clinicians make decisions about providing or adjusting respiratory support.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves monitoring with a non-invasive device, there are minimal expected side effects. However, some participants might experience discomfort or skin irritation where the sensors attach.
