The Dream Sock analyzes photoplethysmography data to identify instances when the infant’s pulse rate (PR) and/or oxygen saturation (SpO2) moves outside a preset range, and provides a notification to the caregiver, prompting them to assess the infant. The Dream Sock also displays the infant’s PR and SpO2 values to the caregiver and displays trends in these measured values, and their relationship to the preset ranges, over time. These PR and SpO2 notifications and displays on the Dream Sock are intended for use in infants who are 1 to 18 months of age and between 6 to 30 lbs.
An assembly of electrically-powered devices designed to be used by a layperson in the home for intermittent or continuous assessment of several vital physiologic parameters [e.g., electrocardiogram (ECG), noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP), pulse rate, temperature, haemoglobin oxygen saturation (SpO2)]. It includes both physiological parameter sensors, probes, and/or electrodes (e.g., ECG electrodes, blood pressure cuff) and processing hardware with dedicated software. It typically incorporates a monitoring screen, but may alternatively be connected to an off-the-shelf device for display; it is not intended to be worn on the body.
