Background: Guidelines of neonatal resuscitation are revised regularly. Gaps in knowledge transfer commonly occur when the guidelines are communicated to the clinical practitioners. Maintaining body temperature and supporting oxygenation are main goals that clinical practitioners aim to achieve in assisting newborns during the feto-neonatal transition at birth. Objectives: In this study, we aim to examine the compliance to guidelines in neonatal resuscitation regarding the temperature maintenance and oxygen use in newborns at birth. Methods: From October to November 2013, a prospective questionnaire surveillance was conducted in all attended deliveries at all four hospitals in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. All clinical practitioners (registered nurses, physicians and respiratory therapists) were requested to complete the questionnaires immediately after the attended delivery regarding temperature maintenance and oxygenation monitoring. Descriptive statistics were used with mean±SD (range) and % presented. Results: During the 14-days study period, data was obtained in 518 of 712 (73%) attended deliveries of newborns with gestational age 38.6±2.0 (23-42) weeks and birth weight 3324±589 (348-6168) g. Of these deliveries, 58% were normal vaginal deliveries and 29% were cesarean sections. There were 8.8% and 8.4% newborns who required positive pressure ventilation and continuous positive pressure, respectively. Radiant warmer heat was used in 81% (419/518) with 63% (266/419) turned to full power. Room temperature was 21.6±1.6 (17-31)°C. Body temperature at 30-60 min after birth was 36.8±0.5 (32.4-38.1)°C with hypothermia (<36.5°C) in 17%. Percutaneous oxygen saturation was measured in 15% newborns and 96% had sensors placed at the right wrist. At the initiation of resuscitation, 21% oxygen was used in 76% and the oxygen concentration was adjusted according to an oxygen saturation chart in 17%. In 70% of the cases, clinical practitioners commented that this chart was not helpful. Conclusions: Gaps in knowledge transfer contribute to non-compliance in the guidelines of neonatal resuscitation for temperature maintenance and oxygen use. Caution is needed to avoid hypothermia and hyperoxia in at-risk populations such as prematurity.

Quality Of Patient Care

In most hospitals, nurses routinely calculate and document primary vital signs for all patients 2-3 times per day to get information on the patient's condition. Vital Sign Monitor is made for medical devices that can diagnose patients who need intensive care to determine patient needs. Some parameters used in patient renewal: Oxygen saturation (SPO2), and body temperature. This makes additional tasks very important to be evaluated for medical staff and equipment manufacturers. This evaluation is needed to get the real condition of the patient. With the large number of patients who need evaluation, it is not possible to see the condition of some medical workers who work. This medical service is expected to reduce the workload of nurses with doctors and improve the quality of patient care. The large demand for these devices, mostly in hospital intensive rooms, is the basis for researching the output of data from multiple vital sensor monitor monitors to obtain accurate and precise outputs. The output of the two sensors is processed by Arduino Mega2560 and requested on a 5 inch TFT LCD in the form of body temperature and oxygen saturation. Comparison of module results with standard measuring instruments calibrated to reference this module is used for accurate and precise results. According to the assessment and reversing tool data with the dressing tool, the highest error value is 1%. With a maximum permitted permission of 5%.

Selected Body Temperature

We tested the hypothesis that hypercapnia will induce behavioral hypothermia in toads and that central chemoreceptors are involved in this response. Animals were tested in an enclosed temperature gradient supplied with different gas mixtures. Fractional inspired CO2 (FICO2) between 0 and 0.05 had no significant effect on selected body temperature, but FICO2 between 0.06 and 0.10 reduced the selected body temperature from U approximately 28 to 18 degrees C. To determine if the hypercapnia-induced hypothermia is mediated by acidification of central chemoreceptors, the pH of the fourth ventricle was kept constant by perfusion with mock cerebrospinal fluid of pH 7.7 or 7.1 (normal and acidic values, respectively). Ventricular perfusion at pH 7.7 under normocapnic conditions had no effect on body temperature. Hypercapnia (FICO2 0.08) failed to induce hypothermia when the fourth ventricle was kept at pH 7.7 and when hyperoxia was present. Acidic ventricular perfusion under normocapnic conditions decreased selected body temperature from 27 to 25 degrees C, a significant drop but much less than that due to hypercapnia producing the same brain pH, suggesting an important role of peripheral chemoreceptors. The physiological significance of behavioral hypothermia and nature of the peripheral stimulus were evaluated by measuring the effect of hypercapnia on arterial oxygen saturation, PO2, and pH at 15 and 25 degrees C. Arterial oxygen saturation was higher at the lower temperature. Increasing FICO2 decreased oxygen saturation at 25 degrees C but not at 15 degrees C. Arterial PO2 increased with increasing inspired CO2. This increase was greater at 15 degrees C than at 25 degrees C. Arterial pH decreased at both temperatures.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Body temperature (BT) management remains a challenge in neonatal intensive care, especially during resuscitation after birth. Our aim is to analyze whether there is an association between the BT and cerebral and peripheral tissue oxygen saturation (crSO2/cTOI and prSO2), arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2), and heart rate (HR). The secondary outcome parameters of five prospective observational studies are analyzed. We include preterm and term neonates born by Caesarean section who received continuous pulse oximetry and near-infrared spectroscopy monitoring during the first 15 min, and a rectal BT measurement once in minute 15 after birth. Four-hundred seventeen term and 169 preterm neonates are included. The BT did not correlate with crSO2/cTOI and SpO2. The BT correlated with the HR in all neonates (ρ = 0.210, p < 0.001) and with prSO2 only in preterm neonates (ρ = −0.285, p = 0.020). The BT was lower in preterm compared to term infants (36.7 [36.4–37.0] vs. 36.8 [36.6–37.0], p = 0.001) and prevalence of hypothermia was higher in preterm neonates (29.5% vs. 12.0%, p < 0.001). To conclude, the BT did not correlate with SpO2 and crSO2/cTOI, however, there was a weak positive correlation between the BT and the HR in the whole cohort and a weak correlation between the BT and prSO2 only in preterm infants. Preterm neonates had a statistically lower BT and suffered significantly more often from hypothermia during postnatal transition.

The influence of variables that might affect the accuracy of pulse oximetry (SpO2) recordings in critically ill patients is not well established. We sought to describe the relationship between paired SpO2/SaO2 (oxygen saturation via arterial blood gas analysis) in adult intensive care unit (ICU) patients and to describe the diagnostic performance of SpO2 in detecting low SaO2 and PaO2. A paired SpO2/SaO2 measurement was obtained from 404 adults in ICU. Measurements were used to calculate bias, precision, and limits of agreement. Associations between bias and variables including vasopressor and inotrope use, capillary refill time, hand temperature, pulse pressure, body temperature, oximeter model, and skin colour were estimated. There was no overall statistically significant bias in paired SpO2/SaO2 measurements; observed limits of agreement were +/-4.4%. However, body temperature, oximeter model, and skin colour, were statistically significantly associated with the degree of bias. SpO2 <89% had a sensitivity of 3/7 (42.9%; 95% confidence intervals, CI, 9.9% to 81.6%) and a specificity of 344/384 (89.6%; 95% CI 86.1% to 92.5%) for detecting SaO2 <89%. The absence of statistically significant bias in paired SpO2/SaO2 in adult ICU patients provides support for the use of pulse oximetry to titrate oxygen therapy. However, SpO2 recordings alone should be used cautiously when SaO2 recordings of 4.4% higher or lower than the observed SpO2 would be of concern. A range of variables relevant to the critically ill had little or no effect on bias.

Deteriorating Patient

As part of the measuring physical observations simulated examination, students will be asked to measure, assess and record pulse, body temperature, respirations and oxygen saturation. This assessment is becoming more common in all universities as it has been identified as a mandatory simulated assessment within the NMC Essential Skills Clusters (NMC 2007). Although this chapter will focus upon each observation in turn, it is imperative that when undertaking physical observations the findings are not assessed in isolation. Like a jigsaw, each result, alongside the patient’s appearance, pallor, demeanour and responsiveness, link together to form an overall picture of the patient’s condition. The skill of undertaking these observations may sometimes be reviewed as being routine, but the skill has important clinical significance. Students have to demonstrate their underpinning knowledge and to make sense of the relevance of the observations—this can be complex and challenging. Some student nurses will have previous experience, prior to commencing their nurse education training, of taking patients’ physical observations, but the ability to demonstrate an understanding of the underpinning knowledge differentiates between the role of a health care support worker and a student nurse. Revision of key material will enable the student to understand, undertake and assess the relevance of measuring pulse, body temperature, respirations and oxygen saturation. The importance of the professional nurse’s ability to accurately assess, record and evaluate pulse rate, body temperature, respirations and oxygen saturation cannot be underestimated. Concern has been raised that NHS staff are failing to recognize patient deterioration in a timely manner. In a study by the National Patient Safety Agency (NPSA 2007) factors for this lack of recognition included failure to take physical observations, not acknowledging the significance of the observations and finally not reporting on issues that were of concern, or acting upon these findings. Guidelines on recognizing and managing patient deterioration have been issued by NICE (2007) alongside competencies for recognition and management of a deteriorating patient, which all staff working in acute settings should achieve (DOH 2009). Throughout these the importance of assessing, recording, evaluating and appropriately reacting to the results of physical observations cannot be denied.

Considerable research interest in using wireless and mobile technologies in patient health monitoring exists, particularly in hospitals and nursing homes. For health monitoring, an intelligent agent based hierarchical architecture was presented in the authors’ previous work. The technique of monitoring and notifying the health of patients using an intelligent agent, to the concerned hospital personnel, was proposed. This paper presents the details of the functioning of four main intelligent agents, i.e., the nurse agent, the sensor agent, the database agent, and the ward boy agent, for intimating the health information to the concerned doctor in the hospital, based on certain policies relevant to the hospital. The policies worked based on the temperature parameter monitored by the nurse agent. This paper considers an example of the physiological parameter i.e., the body temperature monitoring, for policy based agent implementation. The implementation was carried out using JADE-LEAP agent development kit.

We propose a distributed system that enables global and ubiquitous health monitoring of patients. The biomedical data will be collected by wearable health diagnostic devices, which will include various types of sensors and will be transmitted towards the corresponding Health Monitoring Centers. The permanent medical data of patients will be kept in the corresponding Home Data Bases, while the measured biomedical data will be sent to the Visitor Health Monitor Center and Visitor Data Base that serves the area of present location of the patient. By combining the measured biomedical data and the permanent medical data, Health Medical Centers will be able to coordinate the needed actions and help the local medical teams to make quickly the best decisions that could be crucial for the patient health, and that can reduce the cost of health service.
