Brief Summary

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate whether SUDOSCAN is a valid, accurate clinical device for the the determination of sweat gland function in the pediatric population.

Primary Objective: To measure sweat gland function in a pediatric population

Secondary Objective: To determine thresholds on the SUDOSCAN scale for abnormal sweat gland function in the pediatric population
