Preclinical validation of NeoWarm, a low-cost infant warmer and carrier device, to ameliorate induced hypothermia in newborn piglets as models for human neonates.

Introduction: Approximately 1.5 million neonatal deaths occur among premature and small (low birthweight or small-for gestational age) neonates annually, with a disproportionate amount of this mortality occurring in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Hypothermia, the inability of newborns to regulate their body temperature, is common among prematurely born and small babies, and often underlies high rates of mortality in this population.

NeoWarm: Kangaroo Mother Care with Continuous Temperature Tracking and Heating.

Premature births are highly prevalent; world-wide, one in every ten births is premature. A common complication of premature birth is the inability of the newborns to regulate their own body temperature (hypothermia). Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) is an effective strategy to mitigate this problem but has challenges.

Kick Ring LL: A Multi-Sensor Ring Capturing Respiration, Electrocardiogram, Oxygen Saturation, and Skin Temperature.

With the growing trend towards personalized health, wearable fitness trackers have become a staple of the consumer electronics industry. As the prevalence of such devices booms, the medical community has been compelled to investigate the potential of such devices and explore how they can be used to create positive clinical outcomes. In this report we detail a smart-ring capable of determining heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), blood oxygen saturation (SpO, and temperature.
