Feasibility of Digital Thermal Monitoring to Assess Endothelium-Dependent Vasodilation in Patients Undergoing Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The Vendys II, an FDA-approved device, uses finger digital thermal monitoring (DTM) after a period of blood flow restriction to evaluate vascular health. This study will evaluate the feasibility of using this device to measure the Vascular Reactivity Index (VRI) in children and adolescents/young adults (AYA) undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT).

Detailed Description
Primary Objective:
-Assess the feasibility of the use of VENDYS-II in children and AYA as a measure of vascular endothelial function, where feasibility is defined as completion of the evaluation by at least 70% of consented participants.
Secondary Objective:
-Summarize the incidence of any adverse events that precludes completion of assessment of endothelium-dependent vasodilation using the Vendys II in children and AYA.
