Treatment device for neonatal birth asphyxia related Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy.

A device that can monitor and regulate the neonate core body temperature at the neuroprotective range is designed and developed. This is achieved by continuous monitoring and regulation of the water reservoirs, mattress, and rectal temperatures. The device also allows continuous monitoring of the infant's body temperature, mattress temperature, reservoir temperature, and pulse rate. The proposed device has the potential to play a significant role in reducing neonatal brain injury and death due to HIE, especially in low resource settings, where the expertise and the means are scarce.
