Philips has an**unced that the company will soon release a wireless patient monitoring ***** for use in general wards when watching over at-risk patients. The device measures the heart and breathing rates, skin temperature below the *****, and we’re also guessing motion sensors to detect when someone gets out of bed or falls. The *****es will regularly update their readings to a nurse’s station where every patient’s status can be seen and where alerts would be raised.

Philips hopes that continuous wireless monitoring that has previously been available*for ICUs will allow hospitals to “reduce associated costly adverse events, complications, unplanned transfers back to the ICU and longer lengths of hospitalization,” according to*Carla Kriwet, CEO Patient Care and Monitoring Solutions at the firm.
