Smartwatches could predict infections in children fighting cancer
NCT ID NCT07030998
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing whether wearable devices (like smartwatches) can help catch infections early in children receiving cancer treatment. About 150 kids aged 5-18 will wear a device for 4 weeks to track heart rate, activity, and other health signs. The goal is to build a computer model that can predict infection risk, so doctors can act faster.
