Vitls Feasibility Physiologic Monitoring

After disbursement of information sheet has occurred and verbal parental consent has been obtained, the research staff will determine the initial date of implementation of the Vitls Platform based on need and clinical status. Outcomes will include initiation (first date/time used), persistence (frequency of Tégo and Vitls platform use between first date of use and last date of use and any issues with transfer of data), and feasibility (actual fit with physiologic heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature, and oxygen saturation) compared with standard monitoring data.

After the Tégo sensor has been worn, an electronic REDCap survey for feedback from the parent-child dyad via email or via mobile phone (whichever is the preferred method at enrollment). The researchers will obtain the preferred method of documentation/contact at time of enrollment by the parent entering that into the REDCap. If the child-parent dyad is discharged and a study team member is not available, a link will be sent by the preferred method.
