Evaluation of optical sensor technology for the early detection of peripheral intravenous infiltration in neonates: a retrospective cohort study
PIVIE remains a frequent complication in neonatal vascular access. Continuous site monitoring with optical sensor technology was associated with earlier detection of PIVIE events and reduced IEGS severity scores. These findings highlight the potential of integrating sensor-based monitoring with traditional observational methods to improve patient outcomes in neonatal care.
