A new corporate connection challenge with South Tyneside and Sunderland NHS Foundation Trust.
Our problem statement –
The Challenge is for a device that has the ability to continuously and remotely monitor neonatal temperature. The solution must be safe, transportable, effective and efficient for use on a ward setting. Maintaining normal body temperature in a newborn is an essential basic need in the first 24 hours of life. A solution which can monitor temperature remotely could transform care for newborn babies and could help prevent/detect hypothermia, which is a significant contributor to neonatal morbidity and mortality.
