Smart thermometer trial aims to protect kids on chemo from dangerous fevers at home

This study tests whether a remote temperature monitoring device can help detect fevers early in children undergoing chemotherapy who are at risk for febrile neutropenia. About 30 children from families with social or economic challenges will either use a continuous monitor at home or have a nurse check their temperature twice daily. The main goal is to see if families find the device acceptable and easy to use, with the hope of improving safety and reducing hospital visits.
