Patient Monitoring

Patient monitoring & early warnings (EWS)

Nurse shortage and challenging demographics calls for intelligent solutions that can support general ward in hospitals and in primary care to reduce workload and increase safety for patients and staff. We enable this via sensors across patient monitoring.

Virtual Supervision with Radar Technology

Historically virtual supervision has been done with computer vision (image or video), but leaves a number of privacy concerns and also already technically obsolete and outdated. 

The current state-of-the- art within virtual supervison is based on radar technology. It is a solution that offers full privacy and a long range of additional value adding features and clinical indications. 

The technology is based on thousands of invisible data points per second, that via AI is converted to actionable messages to the staff. 

The solution is optimal for the general ward at the hospital, nursing homes or in private homes. 

Basic features are in/out of room/bed, fall-prevention, fall-detection, or lying position for pressure ulcer prevention or variation in toilet visits for UTI. 

However, radar technology offers more advanced indication, such as respiratory, sleep analytics, sleep apnea, and true prevention for pressure ulcer and UTI, which requires a full regulatory approval (MDR).  

The technology allows for optimising staffing, especially during night, where radar technology can confirm that the patient is in bed and breathing, and a manual inspection can be avoided. This will reduce workload, and increase comfort and safety for patients, staff and relatives. 


Benefits from Virtual Supervision with radar

The software provides detailed insight into a persons daily rhythm through the activity report, allowing for personalised alarm setting based on the persons individual risk profile. Examples of alarms are;  “Person on floor”, “Risk for Pressure Ulcer”,“Person out of room”, “Person not returning from toilet”, “Person got up from chair” or “Person on edge of bed. 

The activity report reflects health gains:

Computer Vision versus Radar Technology

Across Europe consensus is getting that technologies where the input is image or video is not allowed, regardless of how it is animated or pixelized and regardless how fast it is deleted. 

Radar technology works on invisible data points, with about 40,000 registrations per second, so no image or video is captured. Radar also offers many additional features, and medical indication where full regulatory approval (MDR) is required by law and local authorities. 

Radar technology is also easier and more cost effective to deploy and scale, since it runs on a thin wifi signal and not requiring costly (POE) cabling, hence it is also very easy to test in your location. Reach out for a more information and a free test.  

Ward 24/7 – Intelligent Alarms for Continuously Monitoring of Patients

Ward 24/7 is an advanced clinical software technology build to introduce intelligent alarms and early detection of clinical deterioration. Today clinical staff spend hours for manual measurement of vital signs to perform routine EWS scoring across wards. Introducing wireless sensors for automated vitals sigs also introduces to many false alarms for the caregivers, hence there is a need for an intelligent interpretation of patient data. 

Ward 24/7 enables continuously patient monitoring of vital signs without introducing a high number of false alarms for the clinical personnel and supports detection of clinical deterioration for a reduction of severe adverse event.
