Background: To study the feasibility of measuring heart rate (HR) and oxygen saturation (SpO2) on the forehead, during newborn transition at birth, and to compare these measurements with those obtained from the wrist. Methods: Vital signs were measur... Read More about Comparing peripheral limb and forehead vital sign monitoring in newborn infants at birth.

Forehead monitoring of heart rate in neonatal intensive care (2023)
Journal Article
Stockwell, S. J., Kwok, T. C., Morgan, S. P., Sharkey, D., & Hayes-Gill, B. R. (2023). Forehead monitoring of heart rate in neonatal intensive care. Frontiers in Physiology, 14, Article 1127419. https://doi.org/10.3389/fphys.2023.1127419

Heart rate is an extremely important physiological parameter to measure in critically unwell infants, as it is the main physiological marker that changes in response to a change in infant condition. Heart rate is routinely measured peripherally on a... Read More about Forehead monitoring of heart rate in neonatal intensive care.
