About this trial

Introduced in 1930, photoplethysmography techniques presented the possibility of measuring SpO2 and heart rates (HR) using the absorption of light by the blood to define these signals. In recent years, a new approach to photoplethysmography to measure physiological parameters without contact has been developed. This technique, called remote Photoplethysmography Imaging (rPPG), uses the different Red - Green - Blue color spectra at a skin captured by the camera video to determine a plethysmography signal. However, it has never been studied in pediatric patients. The objective is to evaluate the remote photoplethysmography technology to measure vital signs in pediatrics

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Remote photoplethysmography for physiological parameters

    Device

    Patients participating in the study will be recruited from our emergency department. The child will be placed in a dedicated, quiet, well-lit office with their parents. The following data are then collected: sex, age, phototype according to Fitzpatrick's classification. The child sits in a chair facing a camera connected to a laptop running Caducy® Medical Device software. At the same time, and following the usual procedure, three ECG electrodes will be positioned on the patient. The whole device is connected to our standard device. Once the child is immobile and ready, the Caducy® application is launched. At the same time, our standard device is activated. After 30 seconds, we will collect the HR and FR values revealed by the Caducy® application via the non-contact plethysmography method. On the other hand, it will collect the HR and FR values revealed by our standard device (Mindray® scope).
