  • Publication number: 20210174917
    Abstract: A system and method of displaying neonatal health information are disclosed. In one aspect, the method includes receiving data characterizing a start of an APGAR timer; receiving a time value associated with a current time of the APGAR timer; receiving and displaying on an electronic display a plurality of time windows and a corresponding plurality of target values, each of the plurality of target values representing a predetermined blood oxygen threshold value in connection with a corresponding one of the plurality of time windows; receiving and displaying on an electronic display a measured blood oxygen level value; and highlighting, on the electronic display, a first of the plurality of target values and a corresponding first of the plurality of time windows when the time value associated with the current time of the APGAR timer reaches a first time value.

  • Patent number: 10780005
    Abstract: Described herein is a system including a patient support unit having a patient environment, a heating module, a sensor module, and a control system. The control system is configured to selectively operate the system in a pre-programmed warm-up mode configured to gradually warm the patient in the patient environment according to a series of stepped skin temperature increases performed over a series of stepped time durations to achieve a goal skin temperature. Related apparatus, system, methods and/or articles are described.

  • Publication number: 20140296947
    Abstract: A warming therapy device including a system for controlling the temperature within an enclosure is provided. The method comprises measuring the temperature of air at a predetermined location inside the enclosure. The method further comprises measuring the humidity inside the enclosure. In addition, the method comprises determining a correction factor to apply to the measured temperature based on the measured humidity. Also, the method includes applying a correction factor to the measured temperature to determine an corrected temperature. The method further includes adjusting the temperature of the air inside the enclosure based on the correction factor.
