Monitoring Patients With Acute Cardiac Disease Using a Wireless, Wearable, Non-invasive Monitor

Biobeat Technologies Ltd.70 enrolled

Overview

A prospective observational study in patients admitted with an acute cardiac disease, in which the PPG-based device will be attached to them on admission, for frequent monitoring of their vitals during hospitalization and interventional procedures. in parallel to currently-used and approved devices. Data will be crossed with gathered clinical and laboratory data, to study the device's ability to detect acute hemodynamic and respiratory changes during hospitalization, and gathering workflow information from the nursing staff.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Detection of cardio-respiratory changes

Detection of acute cardio-respiratory/hemodynamic changes during hospitalization and during interventional procedures conducted in the cardiac ICU.

Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year.

Secondary Outcomes

Workflow assessment.

Nursing staff will be asked - using questionnaires - to assess whether the use of these devices helps in reducing burden of work and increase other interactions with the patients.
