1. INTRODUCTION

The NICVIEW system is intended to promote family bonding by providing an internet accessible, secure, real-
time video stream of their infant in the Neonatal Intensive Care and Pediatrics Units.
The NICVIEW system is comprised of a camera and mounting arm. The camera may be hardwired or wireless.
The mounting arm includes a clamp which can be attached to the NICVIEW roll stand, hospital IV pole, post of
a wall mount system, or post accessory of an incubator or radiant warmer. Each arm has adjustment points
that allow the clinician to position the cameras at a 45 degree angle from the side of the bed space without
obstructing other medical devices or clinical workspace. The NICVIEW camera system is not a medical device.
It is not intended for clinical screening, diagnosis, assessment or any other method of clinical usage. Videos
and images are delivered to the end user in real-time. These videos and images are never stored, saved,
recorded, taped, or shipped offsite; preventing access at a later time.
The NICVIEW system is compatible with any modern internet capable device. Most popular internet browsers,
including MS® Internet Explorer® 10 or higher, Microsoft Edge, Google® Chrome, Mozilla® Firefox® and Apple®
Safari® are supported without requiring additional downloads such as Adobe® Flash® or ActiveX for viewing.
Additionally, the NICVIEW Mobile App is available for download for Apple and Android devices.
