Wireless sensors in NICU

Featured Replies

I am biased as I was a fellow in the NICU where these were tested/developed.  In the short term, I think the biggest promise is in relatively stable/healthy babies where the wires freak out parents and discourage bonding.  Probably need more work before they can be used in the micropreemies.

I think it's a really interesting idea - I'm curious to know how much they cost relative to the wired sensors?

As a related issue: I'm actually working on a student-run project to study the potential for these wireless sensors for NICU units for an inventor here in Cambridge. We've actually prepared a short survey for healthcare professionals to try and evaluate the impact that such a technology would have. If any of you have any time we would really appreciate you filling out the survey and any comments would be extremely valuable to us! If you have any questions just reply to me here and I'll get back to you asap!

Here is the link to the survey: https://goo.gl/forms/6jpOUd1jUDlTtpVA3

Thanks again,

Antonio

I don’t think they are FDA approved yet.

Anyone interested in this topic please come and find me in Copenhagen  - we have been developing a wireless monitor and would be keen to get feedback from different centres about what they think of this  - and important characteristics in terms of what needs monitoring and on who!
