Breathing monitor study for children with sleep or breathing issues
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how well a new breathing monitor works for children with sleep problems, breathing pauses in newborns, or epilepsy. It may help doctors better understand breathing patterns without extra needles or blood tests.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be in one of these groups: having a sleep study, a newborn with breathing pauses, or a child in the epilepsy monitoring unit.
- Age range depends on the group: birth to 16 years (sleep study), 30 weeks to term (newborn apnea), or birth to under 16 years (epilepsy monitoring).
- You or a family member must be able to give permission for the study.
- You or your child must be able to speak and read English.
- The study doctor must agree that your child can take part.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses special microphones to listen to and record breathing sounds in extremely premature infants (born before 29 weeks). The goal is to develop a simple, non-invasive way to detect breathing problems early so babies can get help faster.
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.
This trial tests a device called BreathAlert that monitors breathing and detects when a patient stops breathing (apnea). It aims to help doctors and nurses keep a closer watch on patients who are at risk.
This study looks at breathing problems during seizures in people with drug-resistant focal epilepsy. It aims to understand why some people stop breathing or have low oxygen during seizures, which could help prevent sudden death in epilepsy.
This study measures how you breathe and how well oxygen and carbon dioxide move in and out of your lungs. It’s mainly a monitoring study to help researchers understand breathing patterns during a breathing test.
This trial tests a new way to measure breathing using a standard oxygen sensor (pulse oximetry) and a special clip on the nose for children and adults. It's meant for people already having their blood oxygen checked regularly, and the goal is to see if the sensor can accurately track your breaths.
