Embodiment Construction

[0082] While motion sensing can passively verify that a patient is and / or has rested, it still lacks the ability for a nurse to actively command a patient to rest. The present invention provides systems and methods to accomplish this in an automated system, so that time-consuming spot checks, as traditionally performed by nurses, can indeed be fully automated.

[0083] refer to figure 1 , provides a patient preparation system 10 for intelligent intermittent vital sign monitoring. Patient preparation system 10 is typically employed in situations where a patient may be expected to be mobile and respond to automated commands. General (low emergency) hospital wards are a prominent example.

[0084] Patient communication system 12 allows for one-way and / or two-way communication between patient preparation system 10 and an associated patient. Patient communication system 12 may be implemented by, for example, a conventional display system, touch screen system, sound playback syst...

Abstract

A method, and corresponding system (300), for monitoring patients based on activity state and posture. Activity state and / or posture of a patient are measured. Further, one or more vital signs of the patient are measured according to a schedule. Based on the measured activity state and / or posture of the patient and the measured one or more vital signs, the schedule is adjusted and / or patient deterioration is monitored for.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to patient monitoring. The present invention finds particular application in connection with activity state and posture based patient monitoring for subacute patients and will be described with particular reference to activity state and posture based patient monitoring for subacute patients. However, it should be understood that the present invention is also applicable to other usage scenarios and is not necessarily limited to the aforementioned applications. Background technique [0002] In a subacute hospital setting, 1-5% of patients experience serious adverse events (SAEs) requiring ICU transfer, resuscitation, or other lifesaving actions. Additionally, patient exacerbations are known to be detectable hours before these SAEs. Early Warning Score (EWS) and Rapid Response Team (RRT) are two combined mechanisms that have been introduced to detect early signs of patient deterioration and prevent SAEs based on e...
