The current pilot study aims to investigate the feasibility of wireless, continuous monitoring of patients in the days around discharge after an acute medical hospitalization, as well as occurrence of deviating vital signs in this patient group.
The healthcare system is challenged by an aging patient population with chronic diseases, and acute admissions must be housed in hospitals with fewer beds and less staff resources. This increases the need for earlier discharge and for treatment shifted to the patients' own home. Furthermore, the transition from the hospital to the home setting is one of potential hazard, due to the lack of observation and intervention possibilities.
This pilot study aims to investigate the feasibility of wireless, continuous monitoring of patients in the days around discharge after an acute medical hospitalization, as well as occurrence of deviating vital signs i in the patients' own homes during the first days after discharge.
