Wearable monitor study for kids’ sleep apnea
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a wearable device that can help monitor breathing and sleep in children. It compares children with sleep apnea to children without sleep apnea using a simple nighttime monitoring approach.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 3 and under 13 years old
- Either have no sleep apnea or have sleep apnea—based on your AHI score
- If you’re in the no-sleep-apnea group, your AHI must be under 2
- If you’re in the sleep-apnea group, your AHI must be 2 or higher
- Have no other health or sleep problems that would make overnight testing difficult
- Have no head injury or skin/physical condition that could block the sensor contact or signal

This study tests a wearable sleep monitor (WatchPAT 400) in children and teens who are already scheduled for an overnight sleep test. It aims to see if the wearable device can reliably detect sleep problems as an easier alternative.
This trial tests whether home sleep testing can help diagnose sleep apnea in children. It is for kids who are already being referred for an in-lab sleep study at CHOP.
This study tests a new wearable device (WP) against standard sleep testing (PSG) for people with suspected sleep problems. It may help diagnose issues like sleep apnea more comfortably.
This study tests a child sleep “sensor” device in kids who have been referred to a sleep clinic because sleep apnea is suspected. It may help doctors diagnose sleep problems more easily using extra information from the sensor.
This study tests a new wearable mask system that works with your APAP machine to treat sleep apnea. You'll try the mask for up to 7 nights to see if it is easy to use and comfortable.
This study tests whether new technologies, like a small wearable sensor, can accurately diagnose sleep apnea compared with the standard overnight sleep test. It may help people get easier, more convenient sleep apnea diagnosis.
