Doctors and nurses have long relied on tried-and-true medical technologies to care for their patients, but the ever-increasing focus on patient safety has made innovation in this field a priority. One growing technology is the use of marker bands, which are platform agnostic data capture tools (e.g., barcodes or RFID) used to monitor patient conditions accurately and efficiently. Through its ...

Abstract Objective Noise in the neonatal intensive care unit can be detrimental to the health of the hospitalized infant. Means of reducing that noise include staff training, warning lights, and ear coverings, all of which have had limited success. Single family rooms, while an improvement, also expose the hospitalized infant to the same device alarms and mechanical noises found in open bay ...
Objective: To reduce exposure to hyperoxia and its associated morbidities in preterm neonates. Study design: A multidisciplinary group was established to evaluate oxygen exposure in our neonatal intensive care unit. Infants were assigned target saturation ranges and signal extraction technology implemented to temporally quantify achievement of these ranges. The outcomes bronchopulmonary ...
