Breathing rate check for hospital patients
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be at least 4 years old
- Weigh at least 15 kg (about 33 pounds) to use one of the sensors
- Have no serious health conditions like a pacemaker, tremors, or atrial fibrillation
- Not be receiving oxygen therapy during the study
- Have no skin problems or injuries at the spot where the sensor will be placed (like allergies, fungus, or wounds)

This study tests whether a smartwatch can accurately measure how fast you breathe. Researchers will compare the smartwatch's readings to medical-grade equipment to see if smartwatches could be useful for health monitoring.
This trial checks how well a standard pulse oximeter (SpO2) on the skin matches oxygen levels measured directly from an artery (SaO2). It may help determine if the sensor is accurate for patients in intensive care.
This study tests a new way to measure oxygen levels in the blood of infants and children using a sensor on the skin. It may help doctors monitor oxygen without needing as many blood draws.
This trial tests how accurate a new monitor is at measuring breathing rate in emergency room patients. It may help doctors quickly and easily check your breathing without extra steps.
This trial is testing a new type of oxygen sensor worn on the skin to see if it works well for children and teenagers. It may help doctors get better readings of oxygen levels in the blood.
This trial tests a non-invasive method to measure oxygen levels in your blood using your breath, avoiding the need for a tube in your heart. It's for adults who are on a breathing machine and whose doctors recommend a pulmonary artery catheter for monitoring.
