Exploratory Study on Bio-signal Telemonitoring Using Electronic Textiles in a Pediatric Acute and Critical Care Setting

This study is testing a wearable smart textile (a sensor-embedded garment band) on children admitted to a cardiac critical care unit to see whether it can reliably monitor vital signs like heart rate and breathing rate. The goal is to evaluate this device as a potentially more comfortable and less intrusive alternative to standard hospital monitors. **You may be eligible if...** - You are between 1 month and 12 years old and admitted to SickKids Cardiac Critical Care Unit with an expected stay of more than 12 hours **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have active wounds, chest tubes, or other devices that prevent the wearable garment from being placed correctly - You are on a heart-lung bypass machine (ECMO) - You have an implanted or temporary pacemaker or defibrillator - You are carrying a drug-resistant bacterial infection (MRSA) - You have imaging or procedures scheduled outside the unit within the next 12 hours - The garment does not fit your body size Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
