1. Only able to be used on pregnancies 32 weeks gestation or more

2. Technical difficulties such as false positives that may require more in office testing unnecessarily (Schwartz et al., 2022) and user error from self administration of monitor by nonhealthcare professionals

3. No real evidence that long term monitoring is beneficial for mothers or babies (Stricker et al., 2024)

4. Initial costs are high, and insurance reimbursements vary

5. Requires smart phone and high speed internet for use, so some rural patients may still suffer

1. Improves access to fetal monitoring to remote patients

2. Reduces exposure to hospital associated infections and diseases -lowers exposure to other communicable diseases such as flu and COVID

3. Safe and accurate Fetal monitoring according to studies (Li et al., 2023; Gan et al., 2023)

4. Potential cost saving for patients and healthcare systems due to less hospital visits for routine monitoring

Nuvo Cares | Remote Premium Pregnancy Monitoring

# data[].attributes.body
Current fetal monitoring involves a patient being in a clinic or hospital setting and having monitors applied to them by a health care worker.

Some hospitals now offer more flexibility in their monitoring capabilities with use of external electrode monitors such as the novii.

INVU offers a cutting-edge new age approach to this same system, where a portable monitor can be worn in the comfort of patient's homes (Nuvo, n.d.).

INVU is FDA approved for pregnancies 32 weeks and greater for external fetal monitoring outside of the clinic or hospital.

Clinical trials have shown the INVU monitoring system has Fetal Monitoring capabilities that are comparable to the standard ultrasound and toco system used in hospitals now (Schwartz et al., 2022)

This innovation may keep high risk pregnancies that need regular fetal monitoring out of the hospital and in the comfort of their home longer that previously established methods of care.

The INVU sounds like a great idea to clear beds in already full hospitals and clinics, but still require someone to interpret the tracings so I am unsure if this is really saving staff time or adding more to their plate.

It seems like some hospitals are adapting it seamlessly and it is helping them monitor more patients, but there is no proven need to monitor, even high-risk pregnancies for long term. The more we monitor the more we intervene, and this is not always a positive thing.

My team includes

Carter (communication) to help reach people effectively and discuss the importance of this innovation.

Sheila (Strategic) to help Carter come up with a strategy for the communication and implementation of the INVU

Cindy (Connectedness) to bring a human aspect and connection to the team so that we can not only reach health care professionals but individuals at home who may need the product.

Amelia (adaptability) to help problem solve and adapt when we hit unexpected speed bumps.

Carlee (Consistency) to keep us focused and consistent in our mission to help bring INVU innovation to hospital around the country.

And last...

Me- my top 5 strengths are input, intellection, significance, deliberative, and futuristic.

These strengths work together to keep me detail oriented, focused and motivated. I will help the team make deliberate decisions based on details we have tested. I will keep the team motivated with my futuristic outlook.
