For pediatrics, a total of 145 sensors worn at the arm location were evaluated. 75.0%
of the sensors lasted through the end of the entire 10-day wear period (see Figure 1-
B). Among the 145 sensors evaluated, 28 sensors (19.3%) had early sensor shut-off
where the sensor algorithm would have detected sensors that did not function as
intended and shut them off.
For pediatrics 2-6 years of age, a total of 16 sensors worn at the upper buttocks
location were evaluated. 50.0% of the sensors lasted through the end of the entire 10-
day wear period. Among the 16 sensors evaluated, 8 sensors (50.0%) had early
sensor shut-off where the sensor algorithm would have detected sensors that did not
function as intended and shut them off.
