Abstract
Premature and ill term babies born in metropolitan and regional Australia are monitored and supported by a range of medical devices within Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) or Special Care Nurseries. Information produced by these devices is not available on mobile devices and require that a Neonatologist be in a hospital in order to view this data. This paper presents a survey of recent research to support streaming medical data from a NICU to a mobile computing device for remote intensive care in near real-time utilizing standard residential-grade broadband infrastructure. A key benefit of this research is that the functional requirements of such a system are used to drive the assessment of recent research as it relates to these requirements.
