Evaluation Of Sibel’S Advanced Neonatal Epidermal (Anne) Wireless Continuous Physiological Monitor In Nairobi, Kenya, Jesse Coleman, Amy Sarah Ginsburg, William Macharia, Roseline Ochieng, Dorothy Chomba, Guohai Zhou, Dustin Dunsmuir, Shuai Xu, J. Mark Ansermino
Paediatrics and Child Health, East Africa
Background: Neonatal multiparameter continuous physiological monitoring (MCPM) technologies assist with early detection of preventable and treatable causes of neonatal mortality. Evaluating accuracy of novel MCPM technologies is critical for their appropriate use and adoption.
Methods: We prospectively compared the accuracy of Sibel’s Advanced Neonatal Epidermal (ANNE) technology with Masimo’s Rad-97 pulse CO-oximeter with capnography and Spengler’s Tempo Easy reference technologies during four evaluation rounds. We compared accuracy of heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), oxygen saturation (SpO2), and skin temperature using Bland-Altman plots and root-mean-square deviation analyses (RMSD). Sibel’s ANNE algorithms were optimized between each round. …
Clinical Feasibility Of A Contactless Multiparameter Continuous Monitoring Technology For Neonates In A Large Public Maternity Hospital In Nairobi, Kenya, Amy Sarah Ginsburg, Sahar Zandi Nia, Dorothy Chomba, Dustin Dunsmuir, Mary Waiyego, Jesse Coleman, Roseline Ochieng, Sichen Liu, Guohai Zhou, J.

Paediatrics and Child Health, East Africa
Multiparameter continuous physiological monitoring (MCPM) technologies are critical in the clinical management of high-risk neonates; yet, these technologies are frequently unavailable in many African healthcare facilities. We conducted a prospective clinical feasibility study of EarlySense’s novel under-mattress MCPM technology in neonates at Pumwani Maternity Hospital in Nairobi, Kenya. To assess feasibility, we compared the performance of EarlySense’s technology to Masimo’s Rad-97 pulse CO-oximeter with capnography technology for heart rate (HR) and respiratory rate (RR) measurements using up-time, clinical event detection performance, and accuracy. Between September 15 and December 15, 2020, we collected and analyzed 470 hours of EarlySense data from …

Paediatrics and Child Health, East Africa
Objective: To assess the feasibility, usability and acceptability of two non-invasive, multiparameter, continuous physiological monitoring (MCPM) technologies for use in neonates within a resource-constrained healthcare setting in sub-Saharan Africa.
Design: A qualitative study using in-depth interviews and direct observations to describe healthcare professional and caregiver perspectives and experiences with investigational MCPM technologies from EarlySense and Sibel compared with selected reference technologies.
Setting: Pumwani Maternity Hospital is a public, high-volume, tertiary hospital in Nairobi, Kenya.
Participants: In-depth interviews were conducted with five healthcare administrators, 12 healthcare providers and 10 caregivers. Direct observations were made of healthcare providers using the technologies on …
