Eligibility

Recruits 50 paediatric patients.

Pregnancy Exclusion
Pregnancy. Female participants of childbearing potential (defined as post-menarche) will be excluded if pregnant, confirmed by asking about menstrual and pregnancy status.
Vulnerable Population
Pediatric participants aged 1 month - 14 years. Consent must be provided by parents or guardians; study documents include subject information / informed consent forms titled 'Information 6-12 ar', 'Information 12-14 ar' and an information sheet for guardians ('Information till vardnadshavare'). The exclusion criteria reference declined consent from patients, parents or guardians.
