System for umbilical artery monitoring

Abstract
A simple, safe, and effective system for umbilical artery monitoring controls continuous fluid infusion to prevent fluid overinfusion and keep the catheter from clotting. Accurate and continuous pressure measurements can be recorded simultaneously with fluid infusion. A convenient method for checking dynamic response fidelity is provided. The system is easy to set up and maintain. Because it is a closed system, contamination of the neonate is minimized.
