Infant warming system having ecg monitor and method for providing resuscitation assistance

A method of operating an infant warming system, comprising:

• detecting a connection of at least two ECG chest electrodes, wherein the at least two ECG chest electrodes detect cardiac potentials from a chest of an infant;
• determining, using an ECG monitor, a heart rate for the infant based on the cardiac potentials sensed via the ECG chest electrodes;
• comparing the heart rate for the infant to a first heart rate threshold and comparing an SpO2 for the infant to a first SpO2 threshold;
• adjusting a display of the heart rate and the SpO2 on a display device based on the comparisons;
• and
• generating a first care instruction for a first care stage via a user interface based on the heart rate for the infant, the SpO2 for the infant, or a combination thereof.

A method of operating an infant warming system, comprising:

• comparing an SpO2 for an infant to an SpO2 threshold to generate an SpO2 comparison;
• adjusting a display of the SpO2 on a display device based on the SpO2 comparison;
• and
• generating a first care instruction via a user interface based on the SpO2 for the infant.
