We are proud to announce the launch of the Synergy Cloud Communication Module. This device enables SmartMonitor 2 Infant Apnea Monitors already in the field to communicate wirelessly with Synergy Cloud software. The Communication Module is easy to use and works on any Wi-Fi network. This means parents can send their monitored baby's data to clinicians without the need for a Home Care Provider to drive out to their home—saving both families and providers time and money. Data is available to the clinical care team immediately and can be uploaded as often as the care team desires.

We recommend every monitoring program upgrade to the cloud since we have discontinued the development of Synergy-E. To assist you with your organization’s transition to the cloud and save on fleet management costs, we have created a trade-in program.

For years Synergy-E was the partner software for SmartMonitor 2 infant monitor units. This software-hardware pairing has a reputation for reliability and accuracy of data interpretation in the hospital and home settings. Circadiance has recognized the need for a cloud-based software solution with the same dependable traits to help hospitals and home care companies manage patient cases.

If you're using our old Synergy-E software, it's time to contact us to begin your transition to the cloud.

Detecting and addressing apneic events, bradycardias, or desaturations in the NICU is critical for patient outcomes. Babies born prematurely often require cardiorespiratory monitoring so that hospital staff can properly assess their patients' condition. The data gathered from monitoring provides valuable information for their care while in the NICU and after going home with their family.

Being a new parent can be a scary thing, especially if your baby has a medical condition. Bringing your newborn home is supposed to be a happy time but for many parents of NICU graduates, it can be a very stressful experience. This particular population is at risk for conditions related to apneas and cardiac arrhythmias such as tachycardia, a faster than normal heart rate, and bradycardia, a slower than normal heart rate.

This blog is excerpted from an article featured in the 2019 summer issue of neonatal INTENSIVE CARE magazine.

In Part 1, we shared the significance of monitoring, in general, for patients, parents, and healthcare providers. In Part 2, we will continue to share the importance of monitoring and why our SmartMonitor 2 family of cardiorespiratory event monitors should be used in the hospital, as well as the home.
