Objective:

To assess the efficacy and practicality of an IoT-centric teleassistance system for neonatal home oxygen therapy in Manizales, Colombia.

Approach:
    Key Findings:
    • The teleassistance system integrates PPG-based monitoring for SpO2, heart rate, and blood pressure.
    • The system allows for real-time data transmission and remote access for healthcare providers.
    • Reliability diagnostics were performed to ensure the accuracy of the monitoring device compared to standard ICU systems, demonstrating acceptable performance metrics.
    Interpretation:

    Limitations:
    • The study is limited to a specific geographic area (Manizales, Colombia).
    • The cohort size and duration may affect the generalizability of the findings.
    Conclusion:

    The development of an IoT-based teleassistance system shows promise for improving the management of home oxygen therapy in neonates.
