Painless patch could replace needle sticks for sick kids

NCT ID NCT07478380

First seen Mar 17, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study looks at whether a sticker-like sensor on the skin can accurately measure oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in critically ill children, instead of using painful needle sticks. About 50 children in the pediatric intensive care unit will have both the skin sensor and a standard blood test at the same time. If the sensor proves reliable, it could mean fewer needle sticks for these young patients.
