Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The main study parameter is the heart rate. The primary endpoint is the<br /><br>agreement of heart rate monitoring between innovative PPG technology integrated<br /><br>in a cap and standard heart rate monitoring using regular thoracic ECG<br /><br>electrodes.</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>• Time interval between birth and the first adequate registration of the heart<br /><br>rate<br /><br>• Time interval between application of monitoring device and adequate<br /><br>registration of the heart rate<br /><br>• Feasibility, accuracy and precision when the innovative cap is used in an<br /><br>infant who is supported by invasive or non-invasive respiratory support (e.g.<br /><br>nCPAP, NiPPV, HFO-V).</p><br>
