Rockville Pike, MD -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/30/2019 -- Neonatal monitoring has transformed into a multidisciplinary field that involves unique integration of intelligence from technology, design, medical science & social study. Mounting pressures for leveraging new technologies in order to offer cost-effective, more efficient, and safer neonatal care have made the neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) smarter.

Advancements in monitoring technologies and their growing deployments in NICUs is a key factor enabling faster & easier measurement of myriad physiological parameters in neonates. Current neonatal monitors incorporate several features including ECG recordings, oxygen saturation over time, respiratory rate & air flow, and invasive arterial blood pressure.
Value-based healthcare models have led the development of NICU centers that are well equipped with monitoring & diagnostic devices, coupled with rising number of FDA approvals for these devices. Additionally, gradually increasing awareness on excessive sensory stimuli, discomfort, and procedural pain has been driving the demand for non-obtrusive neonatal monitoring technologies. Demand for neonatal brain monitoring equipment featuring video recording devices will also gain high traction in the near future.
Several parameters and data points are gathered and centrally managed during NICU admissions, which comprise physiological parameters, sensor readings, device data, and interventions and observations of caregivers. High data volume generated in NICUs are leveraged for predictive monitoring that involves physiological data analysis for identifying infants at high risk, thereby enabling early detection of ailments.

Researchers have developed an ECG for continuous analysis of transient decelerations and low heart rate variability for computing heart rate characteristics index (HeRO). This developments aids in early detection of sepsis in newborn babies. Attempts have also been made for using parameters in the detecting apneas of premature infants. Although challenges persist in predictive monitoring and proper training is required for relevant caregivers, this approach has potential for treating life-threatening ailments earlier, thereby improving outcomes in neonatal care.
Pulse oximetry, a prominent patient monitoring technology, is providing safety for infants and newborns in NICUs, while new advancements in home monitoring enable data transmission of neonates' vital data to smartphones. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has slated screening newborns by using pulse oximeters to be beneficial & effective in identifying numerous life-threating conditions. In current-world healthcare facilities, effective patient monitoring technology is highly bound to effective respiratory care.
When it comes to monitoring newborn babies, particularly in NICUs, extra care & safety is essential, which is often delivered through pulse oximetry. The non-invasive nature of pulse oximetry has made it ideal for application in newborns. Several hospitals have been employing pulse oximeters as the standard of care in their NICUs. For example, the NICU at Pennsylvania-based Reading Hospital utilizes Philips Healthcare's IntelliVue Monitors, and Covidien's Nellcor pulse oximeters to ensure positive outcomes for newborn babies.
