Abstract | This paper describes the development of a heart rate monitor for normal, newborn infants. Using appropriate sensors, heart signals are amplified by a battery-powered preamplifier unit and fed into a digital monitoring system. An alarm unit is included to alert the hospital staff whenever heart rates occur outside an acceptable range. |
