Leo Study Unstable Asthma

This is a prospective, observational study to investigate the agreement of the Leo device signal derivation with gold standard asthmatic testing in recently exacerbated asthmatic children. This study is designed for engineering validation of a wireless, wearable device (Leo) for assessing clinical control of children recovering from acute respiratory event such as asthma attack. The Leo device will monitor chest impedance, ECG and body position to calculate parameters such as respiration rate, heart rate, lung volume, tidal breathing flow and volume curves, and body position. These parameters will then be used to train and algorithm to assess clinical control of asthma.
