The Use of Wireless Sensors in Neonatal Intensive Care
In current NICU settings, monitoring vital signs like heart rate and oxygen levels
is cumbersome, involving sensors attached to the infant's skin, tethered by wires to monitors.
This traditional method can be restrictive for the infants and challenging for their parents and healthcare providers.
We are exploring a wireless alternative monitoring system, to determine if it is suitable and safe for neonates, while comparing its precision against standard wired monitoring.
This initiative could revolutionize neonatal intensive care, making it more comfortable for infants and more efficient for medical staff, ultimately enhancing the standard of care for our most fragile and vulnerable patients.
