Mobile Monitoring of Children with Single Ventricle Congenital Heart Disease

Overview

About this study

The primary aim of this study is to create a streamlined home monitoring process with modern technologies that are both usable and efficient.  The overall objective of this study is to determine whether or not this application helps improve the efficiency of medical care teams while providing care to interstage participants through the use of usability metrics.  Secondarily, this study introduces a prioritization system that estimates the current risk profile of individual patients to help medical care teams better prioritize their weekly workflows.  Although this mobile application is not a mobile medical device according to the definition of the FDA guidance documents (not requiring IDE), documenting the feasibility of this mobile application to be used within the context of standardized home monitoring programs will inform the use of this technology into clinical practice.
