Wireless skin sensors vital sign monitoring system
The wireless monitoring system will be applied to the newborn and consist of a chest sensor (Anne Arc by Sibel Inc.) and a RAD-7 (Masimo)pulse oximeter limb sensor.
- Medical device
Wired vital sign monitoring system
A standard ECG and SpO2 monitoring device will be applied suing the Infinity M540 monitor (Draeger, Germany). The chest sensor will be placed as per standard of care on the newborn's chest and abdomen, and the SpO2 sensor on their hands or feet.

About This Trial
The goals of this observational study is to assess whether a new advanced wireless skin sensor vital sign monitoring system can effectively monitor the vital signs of healthy newborn infants (≥ 35 weeks gestational age). The main aims of this Study are to: 1. Assess feasibility 2. Evaluate safety 3. Determine accuracy of the wireless monitoring system, compared to the standard of care wired vital sign monitoring system, immediately after delivery and for the first 2h of age in the obstetrical center under unsupervised parents' care. The newborn infants participating in the Study will have both vital sign monitoring systems placed on their chest and limb. Their vital signs will be monitored for 2h consecutively.
