Wireless MicroPremVitals Button Sensor in the NICU

27 de julio de 2026 actualizado por: Guilherme Sant'Anna, MD, McGill University Health Centre/Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre

Miniaturized Vital Sign Monitoring for Preterm Infants in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

A wireless and miniaturized vital sign (ECG, SpO2, Skin Temperature) sensor system, MicroPremVitals Button Sensors was developed by the Dr. John Rogers Laboratory (QSIB- Northwestern University, Chicago, USA) to facilitate vital sign monitoring in extremely preterm neonates.

Descripción general del estudio

Descripción detallada

Building on prior collaborative work between the Smart Hospital Project and the Dr. John Rogers Laboratory (QSIB- Northwestern University, Chicago, USA) in skin-integrated, soft, flexible electronics for premature infants, these button-sized sensors are designed to provide continuous ECG, oxygen saturation (SpO₂), and skin temperature monitoring without the bulky wires and large adhesives that impact the most fragile infants. By miniaturizing the hardware and tailoring form factor, weight, and interface materials for fragile neonatal skin, the system aims to extend wireless, clinical-grade monitoring down to the smallest, sickest babies.

In the NICU, the possible use of wireless sensors has received positive feedback from parents and HCPs. Overall, the perception is that eliminating the wires and cables will facilitate sensors application and monitoring, improve patient comfort, and skin-to-skin contact between infants and parents.

This proposal aims to:

  1. Investigate the feasibility, safety, and accuracy of the Wireless MicroPremVitals Button Sensors monitoring system specifically developed for use in extremely preterm neonates.
  2. Assess parents and HCPs perspectives on standard and wireless vital sign monitoring systems in extremely preterm infants.

Experimental: Extremely Preterm Infant

The Wireless MicroPremVitals Button Sensor System consists of three (3) sensors: a chest unit, a forehead unit, and a limb unit.

In this study, the MicroPremVitals Button forehead sensor will be mounted on the cerebral area of neonates at the level of the forehead. The chest unit will be mounted on the chest, between the nipples, or slightly below the nipple-line as placement allows. The limb unit will be mounted on the outer surface of the hand, wrist, or ankle of any limbs, as placement with standard wired equipment allows.

These button-sized sensors are designed to provide continuous ECG, oxygen saturation (SpO₂), and skin temperature monitoring without the bulky wires and large adhesives that impact the most fragile infants.
