Between 2004 and 2016, NOWS admissions increased more than fourfold, with an average hospital stay nearly 3.2 times longer (15.9 hospital days c ...

Prapela proposes to complete the development of and then establish the safety, efficacy, and clinical risk/benefit of a novel hospital incubator pad that will provide a complementary treatment and the first improvement in the clinical management of apnea of prematurity (AOP) in over 20 years. Defined as cessation of breathing for 20 seconds or longer or a shorter pause accompanied by hypoxemia, AO ...

In this proposal, the investigators intend to deploy the RAE system- consisting of a wearable sensor, a smartphone app, and a clinical portal- to provide individuals in ...

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT There are an estimated 23.7 million people who are blind or visually-impaired (BVI) in the U.S. and 285 million globally. Of this population, 30% do not travel independently outside of their home, only ~11% have a bachelor’s degree, and more than 70% are unemployed. The goal of this SBIR effort is to develop a novel system, which performs principled down-sampling and tra ...
