Summary
This study is testing a small, wireless wearable device that tracks breathing in children. It aims to see if the device works well for kids who have trouble with standard sleep or breathing tests, including premature infants, children with sleep apnea, and those with epilepsy at risk of sudden death. The goal is to gather data to improve future diagnosis and monitoring.
