Wireless Transmission of Alarm Signals from Baby Incubators to Neonatal Nursing Station

Abstract

The safety of the patient is of utmost importance. Unlike normal infants who can regulate their body temperatures on their own, premature newborn infants do not have proper temperature monitoring capability. With the advancement in technology, medical industry has also evolved and reached sky high in the current day world. The mortality rates of the premature newborn infants have been brought under control. Baby incubators play an important role in this. Even after the advancements in technology, there is a need for instrument health caregiver (HC) interaction due to varied reasons. Unfortunately, due to the higher patient: HC ratio the workload on the HCs is very high. This project is discusses about the development of a wireless transmission of incubator indicator alarms to the neonatal nursing station for the early intervention of the HC. The developed technology will reduce the workload of the HCs.
