Pulse meter for newborn

A pulse meter comprising:

• a control unit arranged in a central portion of the pulse meter;
• a first arm with an integrated first electrode;
• and
• a second arm with an integrated second electrode;
• wherein the first arm and the second arm extend respectively in a bow from opposite sides of the central portion;
• wherein the first and second integrated electrodes are configured to be in contact with a body of a new-born patient when in use, the first and second integrated electrodes being electrically connected to the control unit;
• wherein the first and second arm and the control unit comprise an integral core element made of a material having flexible properties to allow the first arm and the second arm to bend away from each other when the pulse meter is being applied to or removed from the body,
• wherein the material has spring back properties so that the first and second arms naturally contract inwards such that the first and second integrated electrodes are maintained in contact with the body when the pulse meter is in an applied position;
• a second layer overmolding at least a portion of each of the first arm and the second arm, the material of the second layer being electro-conductive and forming an electrical connection between each of the first and second integrated electrodes and the control unit;
• and
• wherein the second layer overmolds edges extending along longitudinal sides of each of the first and second arms.
