Oxygen sensor study for infants and children
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 1 month and 12 years old.
- Your child needs to have an arterial blood sample drawn as part of their regular medical care.
- Your child cannot have certain blood disorders like methemoglobinemia or high levels of carboxyhemoglobin (a type of carbon monoxide in the blood).
- Your child cannot have severe anemia or very low hematocrit (a measure of red blood cells).
- Your child cannot be on a heart-lung bypass machine (ECMO) or have certain heart conditions that affect blood flow.

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 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 checks how well a new Owlet sensor measures oxygen levels in newborns. It is for babies who already have an arterial line in place for routine blood tests.
This trial tests a new type of oxygen monitor (pulse oximeter) in babies under 1 year old. It helps doctors better track oxygen levels in critically ill infants to improve care.
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.
This study checks if a skin sensor can accurately measure oxygen levels in the blood of children in the intensive care unit, compared to standard blood tests. It may help reduce the need for frequent needle sticks.
