Early Identification of Clinical Deterioration Using a Wearable Monitoring Device

N/ACompletedNCT04220359

Biobeat Technologies Ltd.410 enrolled

Overview

This study aims to provide myriad of physiological parameters in patients admitted in an internal medicine department, and which are defined as being in an increased risk of clinical deterioration within the first 72-hours after admission. The investigators will also conduct a retrospective comparison between physiological changes in patients who did deteriorate to those who did not. This will form the basis for the development of an algorithm for early prediction and warning of physiological and clinical deterioration during the first 72-hours of admission.

Inclusion Criteria: * Males and females 18 years old and above admitted to the internal medicine department * On admission, the primary investigator assess their risk to deteriorate during the first 72 hours after admission as reasonably high * The patient is assigned to a "monitoring bed" within the department * The patient has signed an informed consent form Exclusion Criteria: * Lack of informed consent * It is known in advance that the patient cannot take part in the study for a 72-hours period (e.g. a patient that will be taken to surgery within the next 24 hours) * Technical inability to attach the Biobeat patch (BB-613PW) to the patients chest

Primary Outcomes

Monitoring blood pressure changes in high-risk patients

The investigators will record blood pressure measurements using a non-invasive wireless monitoring device working continuously for 72 hours in high-risk patients.
