Non-contact video-based neonatal respiratory monitoring.
Respiratory rate (RR) has been shown to be a reliable predictor of cardio-pulmonary deterioration, but standard RR monitoring methods in the neonatal intensive care units (NICU) with contact leads have been related to iatrogenic complications. This iterative design study developed a novel algorithm that produced RR from footage analyzed from stable NICU patients in open cribs with corrected gestational ages ranging from 33 to 40 weeks. The final algorithm used a proprietary technique of micromotion and stationarity detection to model background noise to be able to amplify and record respiratory motions.

INSMA: an integrated system for multimodal data acquisition and analysis in the intensive care unit.
In this paper, the investigators proposed a multimodal data acquisition and analysis system called INSMA, with the ability to acquire, store, process, and visualize multiple types of data from the Philips IntelliVue patient monitor. They also discussed how the acquired data could be used for patient state tracking. INSMA is being tested in the ICU at University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center.

Modifying the electronic health record to facilitate the implementation and evaluation of a bundled care program for intensive care unit delirium.
This case study describes how an integrated health care delivery system modified its inpatient electronic health record to accelerate the implementation and evaluation of ABCDE bundle deployment as a safety and quality initiative for the prevention of delirium in intensive care unit patients.
