Thermal Imaging, Neonatal Pneumonia, Tachypnea Clinical Trial
Official title:
Thermal Imaging in Neonates: a Feasibility Study in Healthy Babies and Babies With Suspected Transient Tachypnea of the Newborn (TTN)
This is a study to evaluate thermal imaging as a technology to monitor the normal clearing of amniotic fluid from healthy newborns and newborns suspected of having a condition called transient tachypnea of the newborn, or TTN. Thermal images are taken using an imaging device that attaches to an iPhone. This device, commercially known as FLIR ONE, creates a non-identifiable image based on the heat pattern of an object. In this case, the object is a child's chest and back. It does not emit any radiation like an x-ray does.
