First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a home monitoring program can reduce complications and deaths in infants who had heart surgery. Parents will measure their child's heart rate, oxygen levels, and weight at home and send the data daily via a secure app. The program includes alerts for worrisome changes and a team response. 186 children aged 0-36 months will be followed for 6 months after surgery.
What this could mean

What this could lead to
If it works, this could reduce serious complications and deaths after heart surgery in infants, and improve quality of life for families.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, single-center study. The monitoring may not catch all problems, and families might find it burdensome. Results may not apply to other hospitals.
