Nociception monitoring
Our neonatal standalone solution for the NICU. Built to ensure the total comfort of newborns till 2 years old.
The NIPE (Newborn Infant Parasympathetic Evaluation Index) has been developed to evaluate and monitor the parasympathetic part of the Autonomic Nervous System of babies to ensure total comfort at this critical age.
NIPE Index from 26 weeks
gestational age to 2 years old
Trends
Représentation
NIPEi : Instant drop of the NIPE value Parasympathetic tone in percentage of the ANS in the last 2 minutes
NIPE : Parasympathetic tone in percentage of the ANS in the last 20 minutes
The quality signal depends of the operation’s environment
The NIPE monitor V1 provides an index based on an electrophysiological signal and evaluates continuously. This ensure a consistent and objective rating of patient comfort / discomfort available all time
Nb : The energy must be between 0 and 4 for an interpretable NIPE
The NIPEm is the general view of the ANI trend. It permit to observe the evolution of the NIPE during the surgery, being less volatile than the NIPEi.
The NIPEi permit by itself to consider the exact instantaneous reaction of the patient during the surgery, meaning a short period of discomfort, will be visible in the NIPEiindicator in the minute following.
Scientifically, the Energy is represented by the standard deviation of the cardiac variability over the last 64 seconds. In other words it represents the power of the parasympathetic tone.
Recent studies have brought to determine 4 majors NIPE benefits :
