We conducted a proof-of-concept pilot project to evaluate the feasibility of collecting and describing physiological and activity data from pediatric patients with heart failure using an Apple Watch and a specially designed app. Five patients (12-17 years old) with significant heart failure, including 2 patients with left ventricular assist device, were enrolled. Heart rate and activity data from each patient were obtained and presented along with corresponding clinical status and trajectory. We believe that sharing these early, detailed data can help generate hypotheses and spur further study of this growing technology and its applicability in pediatric conditions including, but not limited to, heart failure.
