“…The finding is similar to other devices developed for similar purposes. The result of monitoring the temperature of newborns in the epigastric region, for about an hour, reached an accuracy of ± 0.5 ° C in relation to conventional axillary measurements [17]. The authors suggest future analyzes that include an appropriate sensor calibration and clinical validation for a longer period, since the clinical tests were only one hour in duration.…”

Introduction: The maintenance of the newborn temperature is one of the most relevant factors for his survival. Maintaining thermal control prevents several complications related to hypothermia and hyperthermia and reduces the chance of dying from different causes. Temperature monitoring systems are common in neonatal intensive care units. However, outside of this environment, the detection of hypothermia is still a challenge. Objective: The objective of the study is to develop a prototype neonatal temperature monitoring system to alert thermal uncontrolled.

“…Rao , et al [51] designed an abdomen belt for monitoring the body temperature of an infant. The system operates on a CR2032 coin cell battery and contains an NTC thermistor (MF51E) with an aluminium cap for sensing the temperature, microcontroller for processing the sensed data and a BLE for transmitting the temperature data wirelessly to either a Raspberry Pi or a Google Nexus Smartphone which are used as gateway devices and stores data online in a database.…”

Continuous health monitoring for an infant is crucial for detecting and preventing several diseases. Recent advancement in wearable technology has given rise to the development of wearable infant health monitoring systems (WIHMSs). These systems provide an edge over conventional infant health monitoring systems which are not only bulky and uncomfortable for the infants but are also limited to the clinical settings. This study reviews some state-of-the-art WIHMS, mentions the advantages, limitations and the challenges faced by such systems. This study, for the first time, contributes an appraisal of research prototypes and commercially available systems for WIHMS, which is the need of the day.
