NeoSenseNovel integrated wearable sensors for multi-parameter

monitoring in critically ill newbornsMartin Wolf (USZ)

Monitoring vital signs of preterm infants is crucial, including:

Arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) Brain oxygen saturation (StO2)

State-of-the-art probes for SpO2 are attached around the hand andfoot, causing motion artefacts when babies move arms and legs

inaccurate measurements & false alarms

Multiple probes also take up too much space on the tiny infants,interfering with daily care.

Goal here:

Build novel integrated system able to:

Monitor SpO2 more robustly, avoiding motion artefacts(by placing sensors on the trunk)

Use up less body surface of the baby by implementingintegrated and wearable multi-parameter monitoring

Monitor brain oxygenation StO2 (by near-infraredspectroscopy) and fuse the data intelligently toachieve higher sensitivity, specificity and reliability.

Nano-Tera.ch has provided new and important research opportunities asan instrument for application oriented collaboration in engineering that didnot exist before, and that foster very challenging systems engineeringprojects.

The panel is impressed and pleased about the current state and progressof the program.

The projects demonstrate that collaboration of leading scientists is effectiveand essential to break new grounds for large technical and societalchallenges. It forces scientists to think about how to integrate their scientific

findings in such a manner that it can be used for industrial applications. The program has supported the shift in the mindset from individualistic

towards multidisciplinary and cross-disciplinary research.
