The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the AION BIOSYTEMS, INC. tempshield ("Shield") temperature monitoring device and platform in detecting body temperature for children 2-4 years old. The ED Research team will be deploying this device on all qualified patients who are awaiting inpatient admission from the emergency department and who have consented to participating in the study. Patients will be asked to keep the device on for a maximum of 7 hours during their stay in the emergency department. There is a potential clinical benefit that fevers will be detected earlier in subjects wearing the AION BIOSTYEMS, INC. tempshield. It is hoped that information gained from the study will help assist clinical care workflow and the treatment of future patients.
