Pediatric Monitoring Technologies and Congenital Heart Disease: A Systematic Review.

Outpatient monitoring of infants with congenital heart disease has been shown to significantly reduce rates of mortality in the single ventricle population. Despite the accelerating development of miniaturized biosensors and electronics, and a growing market demand for at-home monitoring devices, the application of these technologies to infants and children is significantly delayed compared with the development of devices for adults. This article aims to review the current landscape of available monitoring technologies and devices for pediatric patients to describe the gap between technologies and clinical needs with the goal of progressing development of clinically and scientifically validated pediatric monitoring devices.
