Abstract: A system and method for monitoring resuscitation and respiratory mechanics of a patient is provided. A pressure sensor detects air pressure within an air-flow path of a resuscitator and generates a first detection signal in response thereto. A flow-rate sensor detects the flow-rate within the air-flow path and generates a second detection signal In response thereto. A processor receives and processes the first and second detection signals using an algorithm to identify a ventilation rate, a lung pressure, and an air volume corresponding to the respiratory air. A report is generated of real-time feedback about respiration of the patient that includes the ventilation rate, lung pressure, and air volume.

Abstract: Physiological monitoring systems, apparatuses and methods are disclosed. In an embodiment, a system includes an umbilical cord clamp having a sensor and a base station. The clamp is moveable between an open position and a clamped position in which the sensor contacts the umbilical cord to sense a physiological parameter of a neonate. The base station is operable to transmit an interrogation signal wirelessly to the sensor, and in response to the interrogation signal, receive a response signal wirelessly that is indicative of the sensed physiological parameter.
