Recognizing the Problem

Observing the current diagnostic systems within the NICU presented several problems, identified by the need for :

• Automatic Sleep Apnea Detection and Intervention

• Continuous Electronic Monitoring of Bowel Sounds

• Improved System for Meconium Detection

Creating the Solution

After recognizing the aforementioned problems, the following solutions were created:
