Smartwatches could be lifesavers in hospitals lacking High-Tech monitors

NCT ID NCT06739447

Summary

This study is testing whether using consumer smartwatches can help nurses monitor children's vital signs more effectively in Ghanaian hospitals. It will involve 250 children who are either recovering from trauma or from appendix surgery. The goal is to see if the continuous data from the watches helps spot dangerous changes in heart rate, breathing, or oxygen levels faster than the current method of manual checks every few hours.
